Hey everyone, I'm still alive somehow!
I'm trying to get myself ready, and motivated, to renovate my Patreon profile. I'll be reworking the reward tiers, changing descriptions, and tidying some things up. The changes will be small at the start as I figure out what to do with my Patreon, so don't expect to see bigger changes until much later.
I went almost tw...
2024-06-03 19:54:30 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone. I got some bad news. I sent the around 500 people in my "audience" a message about this!
It looks like my Patreon just isn't doing so well. There are only 39 paid members out of 124 total members. I am making less than $98... which is more like $65 when payments are all processed. This isn't looking good, and it seems like it will keep dr...

Here it is, everyone! I decided it would be only right to show the results of you voting for who should fatten up for a weight gain drive! You can get high quality downloads of this sequence here too. Thank you so much for the support you've shown me despite me not exactly being active on Patreon. Hopefully this doesn't break the stupid, new, vague rules about "disordered ...
2024-04-26 05:46:31 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! Just as I wrote a new journal entry on FurAffinity, I'll do another for my Patreon!
First, I've been doing okay. Dental health is good and that "saga" is over for now. Hopefully. Sleep schedule keeps getting worse and then getting better, then worse again. Getting regular exercise and proper hydration at least, which offsets the tired mess that ...
2024-04-01 17:53:36 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Just wanted to check in with all of you.
So far, things are going okay with me. I'm managing to stay productive with commissions, but the only problem is there isn't much in the way of Patreon content. I know that. It's going to take some time and motivation to get something out for you to enjoy on here. More early access works, so I don't leave my non-patro...

Here it is, another loveletter to my lifelong friend GillPanda, AKA Battu, our favorite little cute shortstack! This will remain exclusively on here, but as always you can download a high resolution copy.
This took a few months of effort, where I'd often just let it sit for a few weeks. But it's final...
2024-01-26 23:55:54 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone. It's now 2024! A new year, and another chance to get better.
I'm currently, if very slowly, working on something special for Battu/Gillpanda. She is my muse, so remember that the next time you wonder why I draw for her so much.
However, I'm aware that it's starting to become a problem, and I need to try to give other people I admire a cha...
2024-01-03 16:50:09 +0000 UTC View PostHey fatties, how's it going? <3
Things are going fine somehow. How I feel about my art is up and down, and it might be time for me to draw something for myself or for someone else again. So hopefully, you'll see more art for a certain someone you know I love and have been friends with for a long time! They are basically my muse at this...
2023-12-01 14:54:45 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Got a small bit of news for you.
If you still, somehow, don't know. I was recently suspended from FurAffinity for a week, and by the time you read this I should have my profile back. This is because two older submissions were reported by someone, who apparently was going around mass reporting pictures with the same character. It was two weight gain pictures ...

It's finally here! It's time for more fun between me and the darling Battu, AKA Gillpanda, this time with a more festive backdrop for the season.
This will be another exclusive, it will remain on my Patreon indefinitely, at least for now, but it basically is just a big "thank you" for all the generosity and...
2023-10-21 22:49:10 +0000 UTC View PostHey, my plump pals!
Things are a bit hectic lately. Not only did I have to go to two dental appointments in September, I still have a root canal I'm waiting for my insurance to approve, then a THIRD dental appointment will occur. Very likely this month, in October.
I'm upgrading my PC! Finally! It's something I've been needing to do. It's quite clea...
2023-10-03 00:39:14 +0000 UTC View PostIt's getting to be the a ripe time to start another weight gain drive, and I'd like you, my Patrons, to decide who I should fatten up! This poll will be be only visible to you guys, as to tease anyone who isn't a Patron, and to at least give you something to interact with in the meantime while you're my Patrons!
Who shall be fattened up in my new weight gain drive...
2023-09-10 09:03:09 +0000 UTC View PostHey my chonky chums!
There's not much to report, but once again Patreon is screwing with every creator. Instead of making $122, it apparently is just $93 or so I'm getting. If Patreon did a sneaky thing and started taking a larger cut, there will start being a revolt I can tell you that. I don't know what happened, but this is a problem. Either that, or more peopl...
2023-09-03 01:04:55 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Sorry for the lack of news here, I was just being preoccupied by life itself.
There isn't much to report, besides Patreon having an issue with payment processing this month, in August. It seems like things have been fixed. But it was SCARY for a moment there.
I did find a way to enjoy drawing uncolored art more... and that is actually drawing b...

Well, I couldn't resist and Battu gave me permission to draw some more for her, so here we are! I wanted to redraw an older piece which you can find here.
Yeah, that's right, a REMASTER! I haven't done one of these in a hot minute, huh? Well, it's a good way to see how my art has changed after 3 years, and ...
2023-07-03 21:53:58 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone. I seem to be doing okay lately. I'm back to a regular commission schedule over at FurAffinity, taking some time off of doing weight gain drives. I will return to weight gain drives soon, but I simply can't do them that frequently. I should mainly do them if I really need money, and I feel motivated to do something fun like that!
There's nothing much else to ...

Consider this amazing piece a thank you to all my current patrons, may it be $1.00 or $2.50 patrons, and also my wonderful friend GillPanda, AKA Battu, who needs no introduction quite surely. You can find her here, and also here on 2023-05-22 23:23:57 +0000 UTC View Post
Something special for the darling, sexy, and stacked fat charmander, Hadou!
With consent, Hadou has approached me for some serious one-on-one weight gain. Mutual scale busting, and pigging out on a variety of delicious fattening foods! Goodness, I never thought he'd get so well endowed just from pack...
2023-04-23 07:14:08 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! I have a small update just to let you know how the art world of big momma Ark is going.
Okay, I've been immensely successful with weight gain drives. If you've been following me on Twitter, you'd see these drives in action. I also post them on my 2023-04-07 03:38:06 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey everyone! I'm still here and I'm still doing commissions over at FurAffinity to get by. My Patreon isn't doing very well and it's getting dangerously close to going below $100 per month, which I really don't want. I need a bigger passive income than that to help me.
I'm still REALLY grateful for what I'm getting. I love you all, every single one of you, who have kept ...
2023-03-01 21:59:25 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know what is going on in the world of Arkveveen, me, and my art. This is just a short update post... or it should be.
I've managed to get back to work on commissions at a very nice, steady rate. But I'm still pretty burnt out with my art, and burnt out with commissions in general. I would like to draw more for my...

I'm so sorry this took so long to do. I managed to whip up something quick based on what you voted on a few months back. Sadly, not my best work and I am not happy with it. But at least I feel satisfied that it is done. It is quite clear that I don't like working on commissions or art for "work"... it feels miserable and I feel bad about it. I don't know how I'm going to deal with this. Eve...
2022-12-30 22:38:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone. I'm so damn sorry about the lack of updates recently here on my Patreon. Don't worry, I'm still alive and I'm still trying to hang in there.
I will try to get to work on the next Patreon early access image soon, but I don't know how soon, since I've been struggling with burnout that has quite frankly lasted 3 years. It's always been there, f...
2022-11-01 12:29:39 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the second poll, Patrons! I can't get enough dragons, since my connection to them has only deepened these last two years. This time, we got two women, and two men.

The first subject matter poll is a success! And we start, finally, with a proper dragon who has packed on the pounds. ^.-.^
We have Peril here from the amazing Wings of Fire novels and graphic novel adaptations. She is gorgeous, and I'm glad people thought so too, because she overwhelmingly WON in the first poll titled "Here be Dragons"!

Early access art will, going forward, either be something more high effort or YOU get to decide what I'll draw! That's right, I'm bringing back polls! There won't be any deadline or schedule with these polls, so they won't be those "monthly polls" like I used to do.
Polls will be visible to Pat...

I now have new lineart style! You've probably noticed it in my most recent commissions. I'm not sure how I feel about it now, but it does have more character than before.
My current sleeping schedule is bonkers and not really helping me. I stay up way passed midnight until 5:00 through 8:00 in the m...
