A father in West Sussex, England, who goes by the name Hercule Van Wolfwinkle creates hilariously crude, amateurish pet portraits that he sells online in order to raise funds for the housing non-profit Turning Tides. The idea for this unusual fundraiser came to came to him when he drew a quick portrait of the family dog in order to inspire his son to write a thank you card. He then humorously put it up for sale online, and suddenly orders came pouring in.
