Moving IS stressful-no matter what

New and improved unique neighborhood!





New and improved Dougie portrait 2023!

Old fancy and overpriced apartment!


First digital Dougie portrait 2021

Here is a tip for a future mover: when you believe all of your possessions will fit in a 10’ moving truck, it will not. 

I started depersonalizing and packing up my stuff in my old fancy and overpriced apartment a month before the big day. Saran Wrap is THE best tool for keeping your crap in order plus garbage bags. Expect a humongous physical and mental workout for 2-3 days strait. Still, this new and improved living space is the best and smartest decision I am making right now. Dougie is settling in and desensitizing himself to the traffic, people,scooters,bikers and dogs! He has been a reactive doggie for some time and I believe it will only take a couple of weeks for him to settle. 

I wanted to document my first portrait of Dougie back in 2021- and the improvement I have made in a matter of 2 years! I’m slowing down  I’m focusing more intently on my strokes and adding way more interesting details such as this tshirt and mouse addition to the funny dog wall art that is available as a print or a coffee mug!


This neighborhood is beautiful and I’m looking forward to better days in the future. 

“Leave it Doug” is the title of the funny dog art. Doug.🤪
