My Wife Left Me With Nothing But A Dog, So I Started This Fun Photo Series
On my thirtieth birthday, my wife left me. She took her cookware, furniture, photos, her decorations. She left me alone in an empty all-white apartment. The only thing she didn’t take was my bull terrier, whom she’d named after her favorite shoe designer: Jimmy Choo. With only Jimmy for company, I found inspiration in my blank walls and my best friend and started snapping photos of Jimmy Choo as he trotted and cavorted around the house in glee. 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.
I created a series of fun, tongue-in-cheek illustrations, portraying my bull terrier dreaming of shoes, relaxing on a sofa with a martini by his side or turning canine DJ on the decks. Set against a matte white background, the illustrations are humorous and eye-catching juxtaposed with bright pops of iridescent color in hot pink, copper and electric blue. I added the best pictures of Jimmy to one book, which is coming on October.

Hilarious. Life gave this guy lemons, and he brewed lemon champagne.

I dont understand how she could leave someone with an imagination beyond fabulous! Her loss. Dogs are better companions.

I'm sure there is more to the story, and I doubt he had absolutely nothing and was left with just an empty apartment: she took his underwear too? If she wanted to hurt him by taking everything she would have taken the dog too
