Done with this year! (Patreon)

My dear friends and patrons,

so another year has passed by, this time it’s good that it’s over, but the danger of the current pandemic is still acute. I hope to find you all in good health.

It’s time for me to thank you for the year, for your endless patience and generous support. In comparison to last year I’ve got 30 patrons more, but several hundred Dollars less a month, but I still can make a living from that, no luxury, but a daily meal and a rented room, even my ol’ car is still running, I’m using it only once a week currently. I appreciate your support very much, you make my complete livelihood, what you give is my only income. Without your help I surely wouldn’t be here anymore. Thanks to those that made advertisements for me by posting my works world wide (please don’t post huge sizes).

My current status hasn’t changed, I’m still at the lousy, temporary loud and stinky location, surrounded by ruthless people. I’m still seeking desperately for another place to live, but the older one gets, the less the chances become to find something that fits. I get rejected because of my age, my disability (it’s just a bad back, nothing contagious), or because I’m not a student, not female, or not driving home over the weekend (no kidding). Or it’s too near to any loud noise sources, as motorways, railways, wind power generators or deep flying jet planes and I don’t want into a city or big town. I can’t emigrate, because all countries ask for the health status and as soon as they hear that one has health problems, the application gets rejected. So there is nothing left than carrying on to seek each and every day in the ads for a payable room in a quiet location, finding nice people that rent a room without any preconceptions. This not ending search takes a lot of my precious, limited time each day, time I would rather invest into new works for you.

Let's hope that next year everything will be better. Don’t stop to take good care of yourself and stay healthy. Those who had the bad luck to become any disease, I wish you all the best, get well soon!

A special thanks to PhillipThe2, for his very generous support and the refinement of my work files, making great artworks out of it.

To all of you: Thank you very much. Bear hug!

Yours respectfully

Gagala
