This Man Draws Adorable Illustrations Of Pets Based On Their Personalities

Artist Chris Beetow loves creating portraits of pets, but they aren’t simple odes to their adorable faces. Instead, Beetow likes to dig a little deeper into the personality behind the pup, cat, piglet, and every other pet in between.

He loves talking with owners, hearing about all their pets’ cute quirks and funny mannerisms. He then translates those facets into what is definitely a one-of-a-kind homage to your favorite animal. If regular photos are worth a thousand words, these are worth a thousand more.
