Talented painter Jon Masters isn't easily discouraged. In fact, being homeless doesn't even get him down. In his eyes, nothing truly bad ever happens, "just not enough time has gone by to see what the good is gonna be."
Well now, after practically the entire town of Pensacola, Florida has heard his story, the good has finally come Jon's way, and he's making the most of it.
Jon Masters and his dog, Sheba, are homeless. But that's not stopping him from pursuing his passion of painting.
Thanks to the generosity of Pensacola citizens, he's been able to buy the art supplies needed to do what he loves, as well as take care of Sheba.
Painting is his passion, and he's damn good at it.
So good, word of his talent has spread and people are coming to him personally to buy one of his works. He then uses the money to buy more art supplies and food for Sheba.
Now, Jon's paintings get purchased the day he finishes them. Each go for around $25 to $40 and allow him to continue buying art supplies to paint more amazing works, as well as feed him and his dog Sheba.
