Parker the Pug

About Parker the Pug

Everybody knows me as the creator and lead artist behind Doodles. Art has been my life for years, and I poured an unbelievable amount of myself into building the characters and world people associate with Doodles today. But behind the scenes, things have changed. For the last nine months, I haven’t received a dollar for my work, and since Doodles partnered with Solana, I’ve felt like the team has acted as if I don’t even exist. At this point, I feel like I’m being completely screwed over, and it’s gotten to the point where I’m struggling just to pay my bills. The one thing nobody can take away from me is my ability to create. And lately, the thing that’s kept me creating is my pug, Parker. For the past two weeks, I’ve been drawing Parker nonstop; turning him into a character, making memes, and rediscovering why I fell in love with making art in the first place. Parker isn’t a corporate character. It’s just me, my art, and my dog. So I’ve decided it’s time to build something of my own on Robinhood. Something where I can draw every day, interact directly with the people supporting my work, and actually own what I create. I helped build one universe for somebody else. Now I need to build one for myself. Meet Parker. 🐶
