Custom web app
A custom watercolor pet-portrait service I created, which sets aside $5 from every portrait in an animal rescue fund.

Portraits with purpose
I created Kin & Whisker to turn a favorite pet photo into a watercolor portrait, and to put part of every sale toward animals still waiting for a home. $5 from each portrait goes into the studio’s own animal rescue fund, to support established rescues, veterinary care, and foster homes, with a long-term goal of opening a rescue shelter. The website is plain about what the fund is: Kin & Whisker is a for-profit studio, and a purchase is not a charitable donation.

Each example pairs a finished portrait with the original photo it came from, shared with permission. Before a proof reaches the customer, the portrait is checked against their photo, and the files are released only after they approve it.
The mission page explains when each contribution is set aside, that a full refund reverses it, and what the fund is not: a registered charity or an existing shelter. Rescue partners and verified totals are added only once they are real.
