Guy Whose Wife Left Him With Nothing But A Dog Continues To Put Him In Fun Scenarios (116 New Pics)
There‘s a saying that every end is a new beginning. This is what happened to Brazilian illustrator Rafael Mantesso a few years ago when he divorced his ex-wife and she left leaving behind an empty house with white walls.
“She took her cookware, furniture, photos, her decorations,” Mantesso wrote on Bored Panda earlier. “The only thing she didn’t take was my bull terrier, whom she’d named after her favorite shoe designer: Jimmy Choo.”
Inspired by the blank walls and his dog, Mantesso started snapping pictures of Jimmy running around the house and this was the moment these humorous series was born.
“When Jimmy collapsed in happy exhaustion next to the white wall, I grabbed a marker and drew a new world around his ginger-eared pup. Suddenly, I felt his long-dormant inspiration for drawing, for art, for life—returning.”
Mantesso continues to portray his bull terrier in fun scenarios that are the result of the illustrations that now have almost 600k fans on Instagram. Scroll down to see them for yourself!

This dog is the sweetest! He doesn’t mind anything. And these are really creative and minimal. Iconic.

Looking at the pictures I would say his wife did him a huge favour. He's having the time of his life with the dog. I bet if she had known this before, she wouldn't have divorced him.

I've been following him for a long time, didn't really know his back story! He is a beautiful human being, once I had the chance to receive an answer from him over an IG's DM, and he was very sweet ❣️ Will always love his art, his Jimmy and their relationship

I fail to see why the fact his wife left him contributes to the pictures and this article. If you ask me this article is about a guy who uses his dog in his photographing/photoshop illustrations. The break up does not add anything. Rather it detracts from the article.
