We are extremely excited to start offering a very unique service for pets around the world: the ability to sell their artwork on Imagekind!

It’s truly a revolutionary service. In our weekly team meeting a few weeks ago, we were discussing how we can continue to make Imagekind the best community to buy, sell and create art. That’s when the inspiration hit us. And frankly, we couldn’t figure out why we hadn’t thought of it earlier!

The influx of human-like pet behavior over the past few years astonishes us all. Just look at that crazy dog who rides a skateboard turned advertising celebrity. Even Martha Stewart’s dogs have their own blog!

Pets have chosen artwork as their means of expression for years, but have gone largely unrecognized as providing a viable artistic service. This was due, in large part, to their inability to earn representation by any major gallery or museum.

Enter Imagekind

At Imagekind, artists of all stripes can to sell their art at their price. We give artists control over their work and realize that pets who create art are no different!

Take for example Sr. Bonito Pajaro who, prior to Imagekind, found it impossible to gain recognition through the visual arts:

Although Sr. Pajaro is most well known for his artistic expressions through the medium of interpretative dance, he has been dabbling in the visual arts lately as a means to broaden his creative range and encounter the world in which he lives in a vibrant new way. His subject matter is often highly political in nature, and deals with themes of social injustice, racial inequality, and seed foraging. He is very active in the ASPC (American Society for the Prevention of Cats), and has donated many hours of his time, as well as original pieces of artwork to that cause. Please enjoy viewing Sr. Pajaro’s work here at Imagekind, and he hopes you will consider purchasing some for your home.

Now, whether it’s the cats that paint, birds that display their business in artful ways, the elephant who paints his self portrait, or dogs with cameras on their collars, they can all sell their artwork on Imagekind.

Pets hold a special place in all of our hearts, and knowing that they have not been able to sell their creative expressions is devastating to us at Imagekind. That’s why we’ve established the special Pet Sales Program to offer exclusive Pet Accounts!
