As a self-taught painter working in both digital and classical painting, I have faced many challenges in my life. One of the greatest struggles I have faced was living in a country that is unfriendly towards the LGBTQ+ community. Being gay in this environment has been a constant battle, one that has left me feeling isolated and alone at times

But despite these challenges, I have found the strength and inspiration in my art. Through my paintings, I am able to express both the human and pup aspects of my personality. I have come to realize that these two parts of me are not in conflict, but rather are complementary aspects of my being.

My art has also been a source of strength and support. The friends and community I have found through my work have been a source of encouragement and inspiration. Through their love and support, I have been able to find the courage to embrace my true self and to live authentically

I believe that this innate power to create, to connect and to love resides within all of us. It is a force that can overcome even the most difficult challenges and obstacles. And I am grateful to be able to tap into this power through my art and through my life.

Through my work, I hope to inspire others to embrace their own innate power and to find the courage to live their lives authentically. I believe that by embracing our true selves and connecting with one another, we can create a more just and loving world.

Thank you for your support and for being a part of my journey

Sincerely,

Mike the Pup
