![]() So I did what anyone would do and I headed to Pinterest for tattoo ideas. His paw prints still turned out with an abstract look (after all, they are done in paint and he’s a dog) but I got a better version in the end. I was so in love with the adorable little painted paw prints that he made, and it immediately gave me the idea to get them tattooed on my arm. Since the prints he did were kind of incomplete, I decided to redo them again so I’d have a more finished outline. I was inspired to get this tattoo when Wynston created paw print art at the Strut Your Mutt event. This brings me to my latest and greatest development my tattoo of Wynston’s paw prints on my arm. This way when I look at that painting or my new tattoo, I have fond memories of us together. I realized that I want paintings, photos and tattoos that I can enjoy while Wynston is still gallivanting through life with me, instead of trying to relive it when he’s dead. Why is it that we go through so much trouble to remember our pets when they die instead of focusing on making amazing memories with them while they’re still with us? I began changing my approach when I got a portrait of Wynston painted through Paint Your Life. A couple of years ago, someone from a pet brand told me this “We’re trying to help pet parents cherish relationships with their pets while they’re alive, rather than just memorializing them once they’ve passed away.” This simple statement really got me thinking.
