Hi! My name is Fig :)) I'm an artist living in Seattle WA. I like working with gouache, watercolor and oil paints :) I post vlogs that show the behind the scenes of my work flow, running my online shop, and homie stuff like cooking, small adventures, and my pets. i try to teach in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming and give people a comforting place to hang out.

For my next Sketchbook Video should it be an 1 Hour long Real-time study w/ me style video OR an hour of sketchbook time edited down to a 10-20 min long video?

Also any media requests?? Gouache, watercolor, or sketching. i could even do digital or acrylic painting :)

I've decided to take a break from Patreon. I normally take a break later in the year but I'm feeling pretty stuck right now. not just just with Patreon but with my art and the direction i want to go in with my whole career. in general I'm feeling a little lost. I've been talking with Beau and we've been trying to brainstorm on which way i should go and as of right now I'm not sure if that includes Patreon.

So for now it's paused. if you've joined since the beginning of this month you've already been refunded and that should process in 5-7 business days.

I want to thank all of you for continuing to support me all of these years. some of you have been here since the beginning and i really appreciate everything you've done for me.

As far as what i plan on doing now I'm not super sure. I do want to get back into vlogging and i still love doing a monthly sticker design. I've been thinking about adding a sticker subscription to my website and maybe I'll finally do that. I've been rearranging my studio and have a lot of things i think i would like to get rid of so i might do a big clear out sale on my website at some point. i think it also needs a redesign honestly. We've also talked about investing in a better computer for me (i got mine in 2017) something that could actually handle streaming since our internet is so much better here in Seattle. I really want to try to do more casual content and spend more time in my sketchbook. i want to change my art style and try new things. It feels scary but i want to see where it goes.

If you've read all of this thank you and let me know if you have any interesting ideas for me <3

Hellloooo! After my last video I'm already working on the next one :) it's a little vlog of setting up my new studio space in Seattle. it's much smaller than my old space so i had to get really creative with storage in a way that didn't make our living space feel cluttered and messy (my work space is in the corner of our living/kitchen/dinning room). i still have a lot of editing left on it but I'm hoping to post it sometime next week 🤞🏻

Anyways that's all i just wanted to give you a little update and let you know that I'll hopefully have more stuff for you soon <3

Hey everyone :) I've started live streaming recently and plan to start uploading my past streams on my channel and I was wondering how you would prefer to see them?

So far my streams have been around an hour and a half long each. So would you prefer I post them as they are in their full length or should i edit them down a bit?

Right now I've been streaming every Friday over on Twitch. xrainey was taken as a username, so i'm just using my name over there, so my @ is FigRainey . You can follow me there if you want but like I said I plan on posting the videos on here as well so it's fine if twitch isn't your thing :)

I'll still make videos here of course but if you like shorter videos more often or already use TikTok you can find me on the app as _xrainey

I also want to start streaming soon so if you have a specific day that works best for you I would love to know ♥️
