    Good Dog: Completing a pet project

    About two years ago my dog Bailey passed unexpectantly after recovering from surgery. I've felt horrible that Bailey passed away from home and in the company of strangers. Bailey was a wonderful companion and for the last six months I've wanted to create a Bailey LoRA. I had it in my mind to craft an illustrated story of Bailey's adventures. In many ways this project has been the driving factor for me investing so much time in developing my skills. At the same time I've been procrastinating because I was so worried that if it did not turn out how I imagined it would be an emotional blow.

    I finally mustered the courage today and collected images of Bailey and produced Bailey's LoRA and after some wrestling I began churning images of my friend that passed to soon.

    Now I need to figure out Bailey's adventure, but thankfully today I can rest easy knowing that my hard work has paid off and my tradecraft has matured to the point that I was able to produce some of the most important and emotional images I ever have to date.

    The real regal bean!
