The sample pack: Inkbound.

An invented creator: a linocut printmaker in Portland who makes two prints a month, films the carving and keeps a sketchbook. Three tiers, the About text, the welcome post and the tier maths, built from the facts on the home page.

Proof$3 / month

For people who want to watch the prints happen and keep the sketchbook.

  • Every post, as it happens: the two finished prints a month and the carve clips
  • The month's sketchbook pages as one PDF on the last Sunday
  • Your name on the thanks page in the quarterly print mailing
Edition$8 / month

For people who want a say in what gets carved next.

  • Everything in Proof
  • A vote on next month's subject (one poll, posted on the 1st)
  • The full-length carve video of each print, not the clip
  • 15% off the shop, all year
Studio$20 / month

For people who want the prints on their wall.

  • Everything in Edition
  • A 5 × 7 print in the post every quarter (US addresses; elsewhere a signed digital edition)
  • The monthly studio call, 45 minutes, recorded for anyone who misses it
  • First pick of every new edition, 48 hours before the shop

The About text.

I carve linocuts in a small studio in Portland: birds, river bends, the things I walk past. Two finished prints a month, the carving on camera, and a sketchbook that goes everywhere with me. Patreon is where the prints show up first and where the sketchbook pages live. Pick a tier for what you want: to watch (Proof), to vote (Edition), or to have the prints on your wall (Studio). Thank you for keeping the press running.

The welcome post.

Welcome in. Here is how this works: a print or a carve clip most weeks, the sketchbook PDF on the last Sunday of the month, and if you are in Edition or Studio, the poll on the 1st. First print this month: the heron at Oaks Bottom, carved over three evenings; the video is up on Friday. If you are new to linocut and want to know what the tools are, ask in the comments and I will answer with photos.

The tier maths.

What each tier asks of Inkbound per month: Proof — nothing new (two prints, the clips and the sketchbook already exist). Edition — one poll and the upload of a video already filmed. Studio — a quarterly print run (one 5 × 7 per member, about $1.20 each plus postage) and one 45-minute call. Nothing promised is daily, and nothing depends on a subscriber count.
