Hi, I’m Dave, and I Make Things
I’m an artist, designer, and author. My real job, though, is the relentless pursuit of fearless creativity, both in myself and in the encouragement of others. Subscribe and I just may challenge your beliefs.
So, what’s the deal with Pieced Together?
This name of the publication has two meanings.
I’m a mixed media collage artist, which means I cobble together paint, glue, tape, and random bits of ephemera in maximalist compositions.
I’m cobbling together a creative life by bringing in influences, experiences, and lessons to share, and maybe you’ll pull something from it for yourself.
The Lessons are Free
Once a week, I’ll share a post on my thoughts, experiences, ideas, personal stories, and challenges that I hope will entertain and benefit you. I’ve always learned more from listening to people in the trenches than gurus or professors who speak down from their platforms.
Recently, a friend admitted to me that some of the lessons I’ve shared in the past helped them, and if they hadn’t found me, They may not have become the artist they are today.
Just because these stories are free doesn’t mean you get less value. It’s my goal to deliver the best quality content I can for everyone. That said, becoming a member has significant perks, especially if you love getting your hands dirty.
Becoming a Member?
Reasons to become a paid member:
Monthly digital assets to use copyright-free. These include high-resolution images and textures, brushes, vectors, fonts, and in-app tools. These packs can’t be found anywhere else but here.
Access to the entire archive of past asset drops and articles.
Every other month, I produce a zine, and members get free access to the digital version before anyone else.
Deep discounts on anything in the shop, including full-sized asset packs, printed zines, and other products to come.
Exclusive content and other sneaky specials when the impulse arises.
Want a test drive? Here’s a one-week trial to test things out.
Just Be Here
Free or paid, it’s ok either way. The most important thing is to subscribe because you don’t want to miss out on the next post, which could be the one that helps change your life.
It could happen; if it does, I’d like to make it happen together.
If you want to find me in other places, I’m on YouTube, but really, I spend all my time in Substack Notes (where you can DM me anytime.
I’m sure I’ll see you around somewhere.
