Hi there, Merveilles! My name is Eden (They / She) and I'm an artist exploring complex feelings with simple shapes.
If you'd like to see more of my work, you can do so at http://www.helveticablanc.com
I'm excited to be a part of this instance! 💞
I suppose one downside is someone could just...sell my work without making any changes. But I intentionally don't put any super-high-quality images up on the internet, so maybe that's a wash?
I've been mulling over making all my art a more permissive version of CC. Currently I'm thinking BY-NC-SA 4.0, but I'm considering dropping the NC if only because I feel that artists should be compensated for their work — even if it builds on the work of others.
I DO wanna' keep the SA in there to prevent exploitation from larger corps or unscrupulous folks, tho. That'll hopefully keep the "pass it forward" vibe I'm trying to capture.
Am I missing a big downside?
Woke up thinking about this collage zine I made a couple years ago and handed out at SPX. You can download it for free here:
My dream would be to have something like a netbook (that 10-inch format was so cool), but something where I understand what's going on inside so I can repair instead of replace.
If you've ever wondered what I post on Patreon, I've made a typical post available to the public. I now post process videos along with exclusive sketches every Saturday afternoon!
A little something different today — here's the cover art for a little music I made to go in the background of my art process videos for Patreon. Links to the track below!

Big news, folks: I've started making short videos demonstrating my process! You'll see little snippets and demonstrations from time to time, but full videos of my process will be available exclusively on Patreon!
