一名从未画过画的男子为慈善机构画了一幅蹩脚的宠物肖像,募集了超过13.6万英镑的善款
There’s a lot of ways to win at life and we can safely say that Phil Heckels, a dad from Worthing in England, has taken the cake when it comes to art. The artist goes by the alias Hercule Van Wolfwinkle and (at the time of writing) has raised a whopping 13.6k pounds (nearly 18k dollars) for a homeless charity, Turning Tides, by drawing ‘crappy’ portraits of people’s pets.
在生活中取胜的方法有很多,我们可以有把握地说,菲尔·赫克鲁,一位来自英国沃恩的父亲,在艺术方面是最成功的。这位艺术家化名Hercule Van Wolfwinkle,在写这篇文章时,已经为一家名为Turning Tides的无家可归者慈善机构筹得惊人的13.6万英镑(约合1.8万美元),他所画的宠物都很“烂”。
Hercule, 38, doesn’t hide the fact that he isn’t an artist and had never really drawn in his life before. However, one day, he was making some ‘thank you’ cards with his 6-year-old when he drew a couple of doodles and uploaded them on Facebook. His friends thought the portraits were brilliant and asked Hercule to draw their pets. And that’s when the ball started rolling. Scroll down, upvote your fave ‘lousy’ pet drawings, and let us know which portraits you loved the most. If you want to help support Hercule’s local charity, consider making a donation.
