I do custom pet portraits and memorials. I love to do the memorials because they help people grieve when they lose a beloved pet. To som people, including myself, losing a pet is just as painful as losing a person. I went to college for art and also did some photography and I'm just starting to get into it. I actually made a good living doing the memorials until AI came out and it came to a complete stop overnight. So I no longer have them to do, it sucks.
Where do you find inspiration?Animals, flowers, sunsets, trees, clouds, anything made by mother nature.
What would you do with $25,000?Pay off my veterinarian bills. Get a decent working car, because mine is no longer running and I haven't had a car in 5 months. Pay for a 20 year Patton for a no pull dog leash I invented. Right now I could only afford a 1 year.
