Sometimes I feel really down because I'm having trouble selling my artwork and that sort of thing, but then I watch your videos and I feel inspired all over again. Thank you for making these videos friend. They are so so helpful and uplifting.
I am so happy about your successes! I can't think of anyone I would want to support more, and you spoil your patrons! None of the other creators I am a patron of post as often as you do, and I never expect creators to have extra content on patreon really so it is such a lovely surprise. Patreon is such a wonderful idea truly, because even if each person can only help out a little, it adds up to mean so much for so many artists. I hope you have the most magical Japan trip
This was extremely helpful! I started my patreon account a couple months ago and you answered almost all my questions I've ever had about it! I love your videos and podcasts so much 😭😻 💕💕💕
You’re literally my favorite artist. I’ve been drawing since I was little, and I stopped when I went to college due to some extremely poor time management. Watching your videos, and seeing your artwork has helped to respark my love of art. I’m drawing again, partaking in the art community, and collecting beautiful pieces (like yours). Thanks for being you, Fran!
Fran you are so refreshing to listen to. I love how you are yourself (even the cussing ;) ) That's what makes people relate to you and love you so much
This was insanely helpful, thank you. 💙 Especially your advice on time- that's something I really struggle & worry about. Where is all the time I need! 😭
Fran, you keep impressing us with the sincerity and tenderness you make stuff! You thrill me! I love when you put inserts on the videos, I can tell you give real thought and care into your content. I'm a Patreon, btw. Love you!
It's so crazy (to me) that you posted this today. I just found you and started watching you on UA-cam a couple days ago. Yesterday I was super curious about Patreon and talking to my husband about it and then today you answer all of my questions! How did you know?? ;) but really, I love your videos so much, I have another job right now but I am working towards being a freelance illustrator. All of your openness about how you make a living and all of your highs and lows between sketching outside and worrying about deadlines makes me feel that I can do it, like it isn't just luck and talent that makes someone successful, it's all the hard work you put in. Thank you so much for all your videos ❤
Fran, thank you for always being so open and honest. It is refreshing to see someone successful (you) take time to help others. This was incredibly helpful. Watching your videos (since you were in Berlin, making spanish videos) has really given me hope and answered many questions I have. I am finally thinking seriously about freelancing. You deserve all the best. Muchisisimas gracias!
I found your channel 2 weeks ago, and I already have to say that you managed to be the biggest inspiration I ever had! You kept me drawing and I'm truly thankful for that! Keep doing what you are doing. You are amazing!
Gosh Fran, you're such a wonderful person… It is soo nice to see someone so humble and casual and genuine on youtube. You really are inspiring! And somehow, really soothing? I don't know, I feel really happy and peaceful after seeing this kind of videos where you just talk about life and struggles. I'm a master student in Biology, and you don't know how much of your insight about art and freelance is relevant for the struggles of writing a thesis! So thank you so much for that 🙏
Fran, you are one of my favorite UA-camrs to watch. I am not an illustrator at all, the most I do is a hand-lettering side gig to help raise funds for certain personal projects. But you are so thorough and generous with all of the information that you share with your audience (plus your illustrations are beautiful!). Your purpose on UA-cam is very clear, and I admire your dedication to being vulnerable and generous with the knowledge you've accrued. You're amazing. You have inspired me to get my financial house in order so that I can set aside money to support content creators on Patreon. Bless you
Enhorabuena Fran y muchísimas gracias por compartir tanto con nosotros y darnos ese impulso que a veces, yo al menos, necesito. Me alegra mucho saber que aún existen personas así. Un mega abrazo y buen viaje!
You know what I love about your vlogs? I love that you tells you how much you struggled together to make it work and how brave you both are finding ways to make it all work 🤗 Inspiring
I really liked what you said about not celebrating the numbers or the outcome but to celebraite your good actions. Like I helped out a friend today, I'm awesome! Or I tried really hard today on my paper. I'm going to keep that in mind from now one. It kind of sounds like the key to happiness!? I feel so inspired by you, good luck always!
You always give me the answer to my questions. I was just thinking about "how to Patreon". My dream has always been to be an illustrator/painter and the information you post is super duper useful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 🤗
I'm extremely camera shy and would prefer to stay more disconnected from the internet (which explains my patchy presence on social media), but at the same time understanding that it's something I must look into if I want to take advantage of these wonderful tools to build an audience for my work. So thanks for making this video, Fran, it was really helpful :)
I had my doubts about patreon and being one, until i started donating to a couple of my favorite creators (you included) and it has been so much fun and absolutely worth it. i know that someday i want to try the platform for myself so my followers and friends can have the experience i have right now! thank you for making this video, i learned a lot about it. xx
Fran, I'm not an illustrator (not professionaly, I draw for myself, I'm a writer anyway), but everything you say is such an inspiration for my _entire life_! We're the same age and I feel so grateful for your videos and words! I never comment on any video, but I'm always following you anywhere and I just want you to know that. Please, keep inspiring us just by being yourself :) Thank you!
I understand everything you said! I am struggling myself and finally just sucked up my pride and opened my own Patreon and it's a little confusing but I subbed to you. You seem like a really great hearted person! Much love to your channel!
So happy for you Fran!!!!! Finally you will go to Japan AND there will be a travel journal and that's amaaazing! Can't wait for the vlogs (I hope there will be some pleeease) and I'm so proud of what you have acomplished... Enjoy this trip, because damn you deserve it.
Thank you so much for doing this video. I am where you were when you decided to start your patreon and all your insight has been extremely helpful and eye-opening. It's scary to trust in yourself as an artists, asking for help and praying that people appreciate the work that you do, but i think you've given me enough of a nudge to go for it. It's great too that i stumbled onto your channel at the right moment :) Keep on inspiring!
Fran omg congrats!!!! I am sooo happy that you are celebrating a milestone in your artistic career. I wish you all the best! Thanks so much for talking about Patreon and going in depth into it. Hugs to you! 😁
Hi Fran! Just wanted to say I absolutely adore your artwork and your videos. You're so inspiring and encouraging, and it's fantastic to see how far you've come in pursuing your passion. My sister is also a huge fan and she's literally flying to Japan right now! You actually played a huge part in helping her find the confidence to open up her own etsy shop so a side thank you to you! If your paths cross, she will certainly say hello! xx
Thank you so much for clearing all the doubts related to Patreon. I eventually want to start a Patreon. Was too scared and nervous about it though. Now after watching this video I feel positive. And I'm so happy you get to go to Japan. Can't wait for you to share your experience with us. Hope you have a great time! 😇💕
Hey Fran! I think it would be awesome if you would make a video about what it was like in art school and what it was like being a student and finding what you're passionate about. Thank you so much for the videos!
Fran te sigo hace un tiempo y tus videos me han motivado mucho para salir al mundo. Solo espero superar los miedos e inseguridades! ♥ un abrazo desde Uruguay
Thank you so so so much for this Fran, I can relate to this soooo much. I am a freelance graphic designer/illustrator and most of the time im super broke but I love doing arts and designs. I (a tiny soul) am definitely support you as much as I can, I love your art and your youtube contents, so please keep on inspiring people and do stuff that you love. You dont know how much you inspired me! Thank you and thank you.
Fran, primero que todo te envió saludos desde México! No tiene mucho que te encontré por casualidad en Instagram y desde entonces he estado viendo tus videos, quiero agradecerte por hacerlos son realmente inspiradores y quería compartirte que tenía precisamente esa concepción acerca de los ilustradores que he seguido y utilizan Patreon; y precisamente hace unos días mientras veía compulsivamente tus videos me quitaste esa idea. Y es porque eres tan agradecida y generosa, con este video terminaste de comprobarlo Así que en realidad mi comentario es como agradecimiento, gracias por inyectar ese coraje, inspiración, etc a todas las personas que vemos lo que haces! Les deseo a ti y a Ed mucha suerte y felicidad en su viaje a Japón! No puedo esperar para ver sus fotos y videos y escuchar sus experiencias Y una vez más gracias :D
Fran eres una persona mega inspiradora! Es genial ver lo mucho que haz crecido y lo mucho que haz logrado. Gracias infinitas por todo lo que entregas en tus vídeos, siempre es un agrado ver tus vídeos. Gracias totales! Qué su viaje a Japón sea magnífico! Ojalá puedan compartir algo de su experiencia allá! Saludos!
I supported you on patreon but because you give me hope and so much motivation to keep working on my artistic pieces. It's like i feel i have a debt with you and i want to see you happy and that makes me happy too.
Your videos are always so casual/relaxing and inspirational! ♥️ so many great advices not just for Patron but for Social Media in general, thanks a loooot! P.S: Fran please, stop recommending books. I can't keep up and my library is about to explode 😂😂😂
It would be so cool if you did did vlogs again through Christmas! I absolutely loved those vids. 💕 Keep up the great work Fran you always inspire me and make me smile!
I’ve been thinking about doing a Patreon, you answered a lot of my questions about it so thank you! I love the witchy bundle AND your trip sounds amazing!
Thank you for sharing. I am just starting to create an account and this has helped a lot. I must add if I may, you have stunning hand writing. One does not see that nowadays with the computer generation. I wish you all the best with your channels.
Thank you so much for sharing Fran! You are my YT inspiration 💖 I am busy with bazaars right now but come January I will double down with my content :)
I had a Patreon for a bit last year, but it just didn't make sense to me to keep it up, because I only had one patron and a couple of hundred followers on my social media accounts. I feel like it really only makes sense if you have a couple thousand followers at least. Your dedication is very inspiring. I've also read The Art of Asking. Thanks for all your hard work :)
Muchas gracias Fran por abrirte y decirnos todo esto!! Como siempre, termino cada video con buen ánimo, digiriendo lo aprendido y viendo qué puedo incorporar de inmediato a mi proyecto. Cuando hablaste de la renta casi se me salen los ojos!!! (pensé: y yo sufriendo acá por nada). Creo que mucho es la actitud, la honestidad y ese profesionalismo que le inyectas a cada video. Desde que empecé con Patreon y encontré tu cuenta y luego tu canal, en definitiva tu proyecto ha sido y sigue siendo mi modelo a seguir. Te agradezco que hayas hablado de números!!! Si bien mucha gente no les presta la debida importancia, hacen la diferencia entre que un negocio, no sólo una cuenta de Patreon, funcione o no y a veces escuchar a alguien que seguimos hablar al respecto puede dar mucha idea. Me encantó todo, la honestidad, los números, la apertura y los consejos sobre recompensas. Que disfruten mucho su viaje!! Saludos desde Guadalajara, México. ;)
Aaah I'm so glad you get to come to Japan! I moved to Tokyo a few months ago and I absolutely love it!! You're going to adore the Ghibli museum. It's so, so magical. And suburb it's in/near, Kichijoji, is absolutely lovely. Are you doing a travel journal for this trip? xx
TY Fran! I've considered Patreon, but as you had mentioned.Probably need to develop more of a following. Have a wonderful trip to Japan. Excited to see your content from your journey! Big Huggs!!!
As always, loved your video! I'm really happy that you can take a great vacation!!!! Take care and thanks for the wonderful stuff! (and your accent is reaaally getting more English each and every time !)
Gracias por aclarar la dudas que tenía acerca de esa plataforma. Es un agrado escuchar tus consejos!! Lo mejor para tu viaje a Japón, que sin duda será inspirador en todo sentido! Abrazos desde Punta Arenas, Chile!
Ohhh! Me hiciste emocionar :___) gracias por un video tan sincero, por emocionarte y compartir con nosotros tanto... Muchas, muchas gracias por todo y enhorabuena por lograr metas y celabrarlas. Disfruta mucho en Japón ¡Qué ganas de ver tu maleta! Un abrazo y feliz semana
I am trying to start uploading my Disneyland experience videos on Patreon & this video has been very helpful I do not feel stress as I did before much appreciated. Most of my Disneyland experiences are from my castmember experience going to my place of work interacting with the characters as my castmember character that I play in the park.
Thank you sooooo much for this video Fran! :D I am thinking about doing a Patreon page for my concepts and illustrations, but I don`t really have a fan base and I`m awful in front of a camera, so videos are something that I can`t really do. Your video answers to a lot of questions that I had in my mind! Muchisimas gracias! Wish you a wonderful day! :)
I cried almost the entire time watching this video 😂lol don't worry it was a good cry. I am so happy for you and I can not WAIT to see the footage of Japan 😱😍again so happy for you and Ed, you're gunna have such a kick ass time bah! 💃🏽thanks for sharing your heart as always 😊👍🏾
I AM SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR VIDEO ON PATREON. IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED TO ME MANY TIMES TO START A PATREON ACCT. WHILE IT MAKES ME TO FEEL GOOD THAT PEOPLE THINK ENOUGH ABOUT ME, I KNOW HOW TO DO MANY ARTISTIC THINGS, AND COME AT ALL I DO AS JUST ME, A NON PROFESSIONAL, HOPING TO INSPIRE REGULAR PEOPLE INTO ART & CREATIVITY. YOUR VIDEO REALLY HELPED ME TO SEE I DO NOT NEED TO BE A CELEBRITY FROM THE GET GO. ANYWAY, IN SHORT YOUR HONESTY IS A SINCERE INSPIRATION TO ME, :-)
Thank you for your very insightful info about Patreon. I just recently heard about Patreon but I have close to zero knowledge about what Patreon is and what it means for artists. I noticed that this post was from 2 years ago and so I'm guessing you're 4 years into Patreon work now. I'm so new at it so it's nice to hear from Patreon veterans such as yourself and learn from you!
Hi dear fran, i want to say something. I'm from germany and maybe you know germans are really penny-pinching and i'm too. So what i wanted to say to you....if i would pay for someone on patreon it would be you. You bring me back to my hobby roots. Thank you. ♥ I really enjoy your videos.
Gracias por toda la info Fran! Me encanta que tus videos se sientan como una conversación y que estén llenos de contenido e info importante/interesante ♡
Felicitaciones Fran, me hace super feliz que estés logrando tanto y a la vez te doy las gracias por este tipo de videos y otros, ayudar tanto de verdad 💖 muchísimas gracias 💖💖
Ive always been so terrified of Patreon but this... like all of your other videos was beyond helpful :)
Thank you!
Sometimes I feel really down because I'm having trouble selling my artwork and that sort of thing, but then I watch your videos and I feel inspired all over again. Thank you for making these videos friend. They are so so helpful and uplifting.
You artists are totally amazing. I stand in awe.
I am so happy about your successes! I can't think of anyone I would want to support more, and you spoil your patrons!

Fran you read my mind. I've just starting (timidly) setting up a Patreon account!!
This was insanely helpful, thank you. 💙 Especially your advice on time- that's something I really struggle & worry about. Where is all the time I need! 😭
OMG Hollyyyyyy, let me know when it's ready!!!!!!
Yessssss Holly!!!! I'm certainly gonna by there!
Omg yes! Take all my money.
OMG YES HOLLY! Can't wait to see your Patreon. I love your UA-cam channel!
Fran, you keep impressing us with the sincerity and tenderness you make stuff! You thrill me! I love when you put inserts on the videos, I can tell you give real thought and care into your content. I'm a Patreon, btw. Love you!
Nothing better than having breakfast with Fran 💞

Sometimes I wonder if I can like your videos more than I do now. And then you upload this. And I'm like: Yup! Yes I can.
THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THIS I was really nervous to upload this video
@@FranMeneses I like your glasses.
This video was my introduction card to your work, and I ALREADY FEEL LIKE I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUU

2 years later and I found this to be super helpful and motivational as usual!
Me siento muy identificada con estos vídeos. No puedo agradecerte lo suficiente por ellos. Se siente bien saber que no se esta solo. Gracias Fran!
You're doing very well fran!! I'm so proud of you and you should be proud of yourself too!! 💕💕
Decís que es el video más largo pero a mi se me hacen cortos y entretenidos. ¡Gracias por disipar dudas acerca de Patreon! Sos muy genial. ♥
You're wonderful Fran! You really inspires me

“Like a tip jar” - that’s a really cool way to describe Patreon, nice!😊
I am a travel you tuber and I’ve been curious about Patreon, this was a helpful video to get your perspective, thank you for making it!
I'm extremely camera shy and would prefer to stay more disconnected from the internet (which explains my patchy presence on social media), but at the same time understanding that it's something I must look into if I want to take advantage of these wonderful tools to build an audience for my work.

Simplemente gracias Fran, te mereces todo lo bueno que te está pasando y por nunca dejar tus metas de lado.

It would be so cool if you did did vlogs again through Christmas! I absolutely loved those vids. 💕 Keep up the great work Fran you always inspire me and make me smile!
I’ve been thinking about doing a Patreon, you answered a lot of my questions about it so thank you! I love the witchy bundle AND your trip sounds amazing!
Thank you for sharing.
I am just starting to create an account and this has helped a lot.
I must add if I may, you have stunning hand writing.
One does not see that nowadays with the computer generation.
I wish you all the best with your channels.
Thank you so much for sharing Fran! You are my YT inspiration 💖 I am busy with bazaars right now but come January I will double down with my content :)
Gracias Fran, me haces sentir que las cosas no son del todo imposibles, sigue trabajando duro, apreciamos mucho lo que haces ❤

Hope you have a wonderful time in japan!! ♥
I'm soooo happy for you!!! 😊 Rooting for you all the way here from the Philippines. Go Fran! 💃💃💃
Witch-stickers in Fran-style!?!?!?!!??!?!?? This is everything i ever needed. ♡
Yaaaaay long video from Fran exactly when I made myself a cup of tea! What a wonderful coincidence :D

You deserve every cent of these 3000.- and more! I wonder if inktober is coming up again this year?? I reeeeally hope so😻
Smushpuff It is. I'm eyeing the calendar for the start date.
Thanks Fran! This is so helpful. Feeling nervous about taking a leap into Patreon, but your insights make me think it might be worth a try!
Aaah I'm so glad you get to come to Japan! I moved to Tokyo a few months ago and I absolutely love it!! You're going to adore the Ghibli museum. It's so, so magical. And suburb it's in/near, Kichijoji, is absolutely lovely. Are you doing a travel journal for this trip? xx
TY Fran! I've considered Patreon, but as you had mentioned.Probably need to develop more of a following. Have a wonderful trip to Japan. Excited to see your content from your journey! Big Huggs!!!
As always, loved your video! I'm really happy that you can take a great vacation!!!! Take care and thanks for the wonderful stuff! (and your accent is reaaally getting more English each and every time !)
Love your video and watched them lots of times! Have a great trip at Japan!

Thank you so much for those video! I've been wanting to share my art online, but was struggling to find a way to fund it. Very helpful!
I am trying to start uploading my Disneyland experience videos on Patreon & this video has been very helpful I do not feel stress as I did before much appreciated. Most of my Disneyland experiences are from my castmember experience going to my place of work interacting with the characters as my castmember character that I play in the park.
Thank you sooooo much for this video Fran! :D I am thinking about doing a Patreon page for my concepts and illustrations, but I don`t really have a fan base and I`m awful in front of a camera, so videos are something that I can`t really do. Your video answers to a lot of questions that I had in my mind! Muchisimas gracias! Wish you a wonderful day! :)
I cried almost the entire time watching this video 😂lol don't worry it was a good cry. I am so happy for you and I can not WAIT to see the footage of Japan 😱😍again so happy for you and Ed, you're gunna have such a kick ass time bah! 💃🏽thanks for sharing your heart as always 😊👍🏾
Thanks for sharing this! It helps us a lot in starting our Patreon.
I AM SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR VIDEO ON PATREON. IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED TO ME MANY TIMES TO START A PATREON ACCT. WHILE IT MAKES ME TO FEEL GOOD THAT PEOPLE THINK ENOUGH ABOUT ME, I KNOW HOW TO DO MANY ARTISTIC THINGS, AND COME AT ALL I DO AS JUST ME, A NON PROFESSIONAL, HOPING TO INSPIRE REGULAR PEOPLE INTO ART & CREATIVITY. YOUR VIDEO REALLY HELPED ME TO SEE I DO NOT NEED TO BE A CELEBRITY FROM THE GET GO. ANYWAY, IN SHORT YOUR HONESTY IS A SINCERE INSPIRATION TO ME, :-)
Thank you for your very insightful info about Patreon. I just recently heard about Patreon but I have close to zero knowledge about what Patreon is and what it means for artists. I noticed that this post was from 2 years ago and so I'm guessing you're 4 years into Patreon work now. I'm so new at it so it's nice to hear from Patreon veterans such as yourself and learn from you!
This was so helpful and informative. Also I feel like I know you so much better now. Thank you!
Hi dear fran,
i want to say something. I'm from germany and maybe you know germans are really penny-pinching and i'm too. So what i wanted to say to you....if i would pay for someone on patreon it would be you. You bring me back to my hobby roots. Thank you. ♥ I really enjoy your videos.
Congratulations!! I'm brazilian, and I'm a fan. I work with movies and you inspires me to continue, to work with art, that is possible.
You're my BIG inspiration! You're actually the reason why I've made Patreon :)
I'm so happy for you, Fran!! I am wishing for more blessings for you always :)
Fran, you are so - freaking - awesome! You inspire me all the time
