Why did you start?

I started drawing 4 legged friends 9 years ago, I started to draw people and pets of web design bio pages and it just took off from there. I was one of the first EVER to put pets on products for your home and clothing.

Tell us about your pup(s)!

I have a little 12-year-old shit-Tzu named Maromi who is my bestie, she follows me everywhere

What and who influences your work?

My own pets I have my dog Maromi and two cats Keaton and Chloe. I try to take inspiration from many different things in life and just to observe everyone and everything! Especially pet lovers. 

What is/are your fav dog brands and why?

There are way too many to name! So many great artists doing amazing things. 

What would you get your dog for Christmas?

UM! Obviously anything Noble Friends, but I love so many things from The Foggy Dog! 

What is new for your company in 2021?
