Not sure what you expected.
If you got those followers through Twitter and did not bring them in through other channels, divide that number by 10 at least. And even then: one follow does not translate to one unit of noteworthy interest.

Let me guess. You have a $1 reward tier (or really anything below $5) and now everyone who decided to join your Patreon has subscribed to it because it was the cheapest option.
Rookie mistake.
My suggestion is delete that reward tier asap. Don't just unlist it. Kick everyone who subscribed to it. Make $5 the cheapest option. $3 or $5 as the lowest reward tier is standard.

That's not too bad, it's probably just a thing that takes time since even with 150k followers you're likely only reaching the same 10% most of the time with few new ones here and there.
I started my patreon at around 30k followers and I'm at 150k now as well. For the first year I made around 300 then a year later I was at like 800, took a few years of steady growth now 5 years later im at 5k a month.
There's so many factors like where you post and how much you advertise, and what you draw of course.

Why don't you
>search "(your city) fine art prints"
>create a piece, document creative process on your sm to build hype
>order 50 prints
>market piece as "limited edition"
>make £10+ profit per piece
>repeat every month/fortnight/week
I don't really see the appeal of patreon (other than for a webnovel I really really like and the author has paywalled the next 20 chapters).
Sell me some fucking artwork you fucking artist
