Some doors aren't meant to be opened. Some rings aren't meant to be stepped through. In Episode 3, pilot Aon encounters a mysterious ring — and decides to step inside. What happens next changes everything.

This is the Jack the Space Dog series, where pilot Aon and his loyal service dog Jack explore the uncharted edges of space — and discover that the universe has a few surprises even for the most experienced pilot.

About the Series: Jack the Space Dog follows the adventures of pilot Aon and his companion Jack as they face the unknown, survive the impossible, and find out just how far transformation can take you. Each episode is rooted in the detailed sci-fi paintings I create in my art studio.

Cornered by enemies with nowhere to run, Jack and Aon make a desperate choice: activate the jump drive without coordinates. One blind leap through space later, they find themselves stranded on an unexpectedly beautiful planet. But beauty doesn't mean safety—and they have no idea where they are.

I am Aon, this is where I share the stories behind my paintings—starting with Jack the Space Dog. In this video, I'm talking about how Jack's story first came to me and what it's really about. If you're into sci-fi art, behind-the-scenes artist life, or just love a good space dog story, you're in the right place.
