ATEN - Debut on Patreon!
From Wikipedia:Aten (also Aton, Egyptian jtn) is the disk of the sun in ancient Egyptian mythology, and originally an aspect of the god Ra. The deified Aten is the focus of the religion of Atenism established by Amenhotep IV, who later took the name Akhenaten (died ca. 1335 BCE) in worship and recognition of Aten. In his poem "Great Hymn to the Aten", Akhenaten praises Aten as the creator, giver of life, and nurturing spirit of the world. Aten does not have a Creation Myth or family but is mentioned in the Book of the Dead. The worship ...
Rawr! Hello New Patrons! (NSFW)
Welcome! I've been seeing a lot of growth this month, and a few returning supporters. Very grateful and humbled to see the support. In fact, I'm only a few hundred away from my next stretch goal.Speaking of which, let's talk about that! I've spent a lot of time considering where I want to move next. I had considered LA (and still do) but the housing there is garbage. Of course I'll need to downsize, but I wasn't expecting TINY studios to cost the same as three bedroom homes here. It honestly was an eye opening experience...

Stretch Goals + Debut Of Patroklos and Achilles (NSFW)
Hello friends! Thank you for your continued support. I'm slowly getting closer to my next stretch goal of 2000! What would that mean? Well I'm looking at moving to downtown Phoenix or LA right now to set up shop. Getting out of the suburbs and into the city would be a great way of connecting me to the art community.On that note, here is the Exclusive Debut of Patroklos and Achilles! You will certainly see more of them on other channels soon, but you can count on Patreon being the first. In fact, many of my newer pieces will start debuti...

Let's catch up!
Had a crazy Pride weekend! On top of a book signing, landing the cover of ION Arizona Magazine, painting at TWO live stage shows, body painting clients all week after I returned from Seattle, and running a booth all weekend with an amazing crew... I'm exhausted. But happy.Thank you for your support, and I look forward to being back on a normal schedule next week.

BDSM? Nope! More Nudist Photography
Wyly spotted this carved on a tree, suspended across the trail, and asked if he could pose next to it. I didn't really think we had time, but on the way back I said "Go For It". He had his clothes off in less than 30 seconds and was scampering up the tree to end up in the amusing pose above. I've included more from his set, including a couple previous ones in case you missed it.Enjoy the photography, and thanks for supporting this Patreon. I have so much to share with you!~Brandon
Check Your Messages For A Present!
I sent you all a special art dispatch with some exclusive photos! I hope you enjoy, and thank you for supporting this Patreon. There is a TON of new content coming after travelling most of the month. Right now I'm processing everything and editing. Thank you for your support, and I hope you continue to enjoy this Patreon.Brandon
Happy April! I'm back with new art!
After spending much of March travelling and painting, I have lots of new art to share. Here is a sneak peek at my work with Pacific Northwest Model, known as Bear. This genderfluid Godexx was a joy to work with, and I'm excited to share more of our work together soon!Thank You,Brandon
Home Tomorrow!
THANK YOU (especially #Patreon) to everyone who helped make this month happen. I successfully booked and painted clients in #losangeles #portland and #seattle. I had an incredible time meeting new faces, as well as rekindling old friendships. I hugged, I danced, I explored, and I felt kindness. The experience was NOT always easy, but despite a few stumbles (flu, insomnia, and insane traffic) I completed my "mini tour" experiment. Tomorrow I return home. Until next time, my loves.
I just wanted to say....
I genuinely appreciate you all! I'm in Portland this week. <3Brandon
Nudist Photography
While Wyly was in town, we went on a hike together and I captured him in nature. Would you like to see me photograph more guys like this?-Brandon
Artistic Direction
Someone cancelled their Patreon subscription because they didn't like the artistic direction I was heading in. =/ To that, I answer with this.-Brandon

I'm back home!

Books shipped!
Most of them anyway! Some addresses were weird, and I need to follow up with some people. But 500 dollars in shipping costs later, it is done. My stock is wiped out though, so I'm ordering new books tonight....After a brief nap.

Getting ready to ship books out on Monday. No easy task, as there are a lot that need to get out to some good homes. Did you order yourself a copy?-Brandon
Let's Make A Hiatus! (Just the show!)
The show is taking a temporary break, but the Patreon is not! I'm travelling most of this month painting people in three different cities, Seattle, Portland, and LA. Unfortunately I will not be able to edit video on the road (my laptop is alright, but no editing powerhouse).I'll still be bringing you content, and will try to find fun and innovative ways to make the Patreon extra worth it this month.Currently right now I'm packing up prints+books+stickers for all of the orders and sponsors from Neon City. Thanks for your patience!As ...
Actor Bennett Wood added to Patron's Pavilion. He's looking for a sponsor!
Let's meet Bennett! He's a local actor in Phoenix, AZ, primarily involved in Theatre. He's looking for a sponsor for Gods and Monsters! I saw him in the production of Bare, and he's very interested in being transformed.Bennett has left it up to the artist for which God or Monster he would be painted as, but I'd love to hear your suggestion if you choose to sponsor him! Please keep in mind you also get a short video of the painting, prints, and other goodies. Thanks for your consideration!http://www.brandonmcgill.com/patrons-...
