There's this weird voice that tells us we're suffering more than anyone else. Right? It's why when you say "I hurt" some people go "yeah, well, not as much as me!" And proceed to tell you why they're suffering more.

But like, suffering is suffering. And it's actually a lot less isolating to stop thinking of your suffering as unique and special, and start realizing that it's a way that you can connect and relate to people. There's a chance to find our common humanity in our pain if we ignore that voice that wants to isolate us in our specialness.

Uhhh, anyway, this is a dog.

Painted on 9"x12" watercolour paper. Since these paintings are loose and scrappy, they may have a smudge or two, but that's a big part of their charm.

Signed on the back. Add a note if you want it signed on the front as well.

Framing:

You don't need to frame it, but here are some tips if you wanna.

You can find 9"x12" frames online and in home decor stores, but the selection can be limited. It's often easier to use a 12"x16" frame (a standard IKEA size, super easy to find), and then use a mat to make the painting to fit.

You can buy a plain white mat from me to go with your painting, buy them elsewhere online, or get your local frame shop to cut you one.

You can also get a custom frame made at any frame shop.
