Hi! I am RocketBear, a handsome long-haired Weimaraner, an artist’s muse, a peanut butter lover, and a storyteller who believes in speaking truth to power.
My story began in 2025, when my mom lost her job at USAID along with thousands of other federal workers. She picked up a pencil to cope — and started drawing the pets of her former colleagues, pairing each portrait with the story of the work they did.
Check out my storytelling project where my friends and I share stories about our favorite humans and the work they did to make the world a better place. Contact me if you would like to share your story.
Commission your own custom pet portrait to honor the pet that you love.
