About this Artist and Site

Reducing the number of newsletters. Changing my process to almost completely art cards/miniatures. Stopped selling my work. Contact me if you want something. I have pieces looking for homes available to friends, family and site members.

Made some changes (in italics)

This is a sex positive site, intended for legal adults 18+ due to words, nudity, and sexual content in some of the visual art and poetry.
Hello,
I am Richard B ChauDavis, San Diego artist (born 1956), doing my art since graduating from UCSB College of Creative Studies with a Bachelor of Arts in 1979.

"On August 29th, 2026 I turned 70. Hopefully I have another 20 years. Fewer years is more likely due to certain health conditions I have. In essence I am entering my second childhood (shot in reverse). A lot has changed, any legacy I have, I've done. You can see much of it recorded on this site. For this final bit I hope to do train trips and make art cards from images on those trips and in my archives. I especially hope to enjoy this last bit with friends and family. I will not do many more larger works, no longer paying to show, no longer contracting or volunteering for arts organizations (beyond stuff done for friends). No longer doing photoshoots for myself. Happy to help a friend if they ask. Along with archive updates, here are some samples of the type of new work you will see here going forward. Your donations and attention will support this for which I am deeply grateful:

Everyone who joins this site www.rbcdart.com (free, premium or comped) receives the monthly newsletter, A Public Newsletter (SFW) This is the default newsletter automatically sent to all members. Published monthly on the 4th Monday. While site content is often not SFW, I will make sure that this Newsletter is but it will have links to content that is not. I will send out site notifications of changes with a separate Baer's museo de art notification!.

All Premium Tiers have the same benefits; full access to the sites posts. Free members receive A Public Newsletter (SFW), their post access on site is limited to public (all age) posts. If you wish to buy or have something contact me (Richard). I have stopped selling my work but I do have some pieces I would love to find a home for..."

Fred Marinello's daughter suggested Ghost.org to host www.rbcdart.com after I left Patreon. It has proved a good suggestion. The premium subscriber (patron) or free subscriber logs in with their email, no password required. When subscribing to a premium tier, the credit card info is held by Stripe (not myself or Ghost). Stripe is very solid.

A member can sign up or cancel the newsletter by logging into their account, clicking on the green button and then manage on the emails button.

contact me by email. Contact me at (rbchaudavis@gmail.com) or phone/text (619-337-5489) if you have any questions, ideas, or requests. You can also reply to any newsletter I send you. I will get the message and try to act on it immediately.

I create tags on the site which allow me to share in depth and link things together. #Everything lists posts in order of age, newest first. All the other tags are accessible from the site search feature (looking glass in the upper right corner of each page). Type a year into search (ex: #zzz-1990) to see what I was doing that year. This site is filling out with information and images steadily recounting my history and the present. Somewhat current list of Tags at www.rbcdart.com/tag-index/ or just use the sites search feature.

Enjoy, Comment, Suggest!
