In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female.

The noun 'patroness' is a word for a female who supports the work of writers, artists, or musicians, most often by giving them money.

The corresponding noun 'patron' is a common gender noun, a word for a person (male or female) who supports the work of writers, artists, or musicians.

The noun 'patron' is also a common gender noun as a word for a regular customer of a business establishment.

Odly, a patron and patroness are the same gender noun in French. A patron is une patronne and a patroness is une patronnesse.
