Paint, donate, adopt! That's Shelter Painter in a nutshell. We create art based on real adoptable animals who live in rescues and shelters in the US, sell products, and donate our artist royalties. Adopting animals is such a rewarding experience. Please consider this option when you're ready to add a pet to your family! You won't regret it.

Hi, I just want to tell I didn't forget about the documents I need to sign. My days were totally crazy. I need to collect the images too.

Thanks for the fav, rather nifty what you're doing here. Took a quick look at the volunteer page, and wondered if you're limiting to shelters only in the US?

Thanks for visiting us!

Unfortunately I am limiting the project to the US. I live here, and it's just easier to handle the donations that way. Crossing national boundaries would add a layer of complexity when it comes time to actually send out donations, and it's just me running things behind the scenes--that's probably too much for me to handle.

I definitely encourage people in other countries to build their own shops like this, though! That would be amazing, and I would love the opportunity to offer advice, links, and any other support that I can. We could even set up an art exchange and other collaborative efforts. Would be great!

theechoinside In reply to ShelterPainter [2011-03-23 05:53:18 +0000 UTC]

Ah, that's understandable certainly.

And I'll definitely ponder that, I'm way to busy to do more than contribute art sporadically to these things. But always a possibility later, or maybe some others I know working in this would be interested.

Good luck with it, hope it goes well!

If anything does develop I would love to hear about it! Thank you for the good wishes! I hope everything goes well for you too.

More generally, we don't discourage international support/contributions. But I need to make sure that the scope of the project is understood. I wouldn't want someone to join to a help a particular shelter only to find out we can't.

Ah, hrrm. So, if I knew some shelters in the US (a friend of mine works with some) would that work then? I'd be happy to donate some art pieces then (and spend more time than on the sketches I do, too

Are these no-kill shelters? If so, that would be amazing

theechoinside In reply to ShelterPainter [2011-03-25 07:21:52 +0000 UTC]

Hrm, I'd be very surprised if they weren't. I'll send a message and ask her (and get the names) and get back to you
