“A dog finds a stick and declares enlightenment. It’s ridiculous, but true. Meaning can be ordinary. Happiness can be simple. We overthink it. The dog doesn’t.” - Chris Proctor

About the artist

Chris Proctor is an artist who creates expressive, scruffy illustrations about feelings, hope, and all the weird in-between bits of being human. His work is playful, thoughtful, and a little vulnerable - like a diary, but with jokes.

About the charity

80% of profits from our Art for Animals collection go straight to the charity IAPWA - International Aid for the Protection and Welfare of Animals, with the remaining profits going to our participating artists.

IAPWA is a UK-registered animal welfare charity (Charity No. 1137532) providing a critical lifeline for animals around the world. Through our projects and partnerships we deliver treatment, support and long-term change for animals who need us.

This year’s Art for Animals is directly supporting our Borneo shelter crisis appeal. Your purchase will help us clean up this shelter in need, neuter the animals, and lay the foundations for a brighter future for hundreds of cats and dogs there.

This allows us to operate sustainably and efficiently, directing as many funds as possible to the animals who need us. This also allows us to ship items from fulfilment centres all around the world, keeping your postage costs and our environmental impact down.

Please carefully consider your purchase and double-check your sizing before ordering. When you return an item we lose money as a charity, so we appreciate your careful consideration!
