Hooray! Pigs!

I finished my pig painting today.  I had such fun painting them.  I got the reference photo off the Internet, but I forgot to make a note so I could credit the site.  When I tried to find the photo again, I couldn't find it.  I usually use my own photos, but we don't have any piggies in the neighborhood so I had to go online.  There are a lot of free reference photos out there and the photos are great!

This is 15"x22" on Arches 140 lb cold press.

Bonjour chère amie,

Il est dit que le cochon est un excellent animal domestique... J'ai près de chez moi de jolis cochons qui vivent agréablement bien.
Je vais essayer de vous trouver des photos que j'avais pris d'eux...

J'aime beaucoup les nuances de couleurs que vous avez employées.C'est un joli trio qui semble bien se plaire ensemble. Une belle peinture.

Gros bisous

Câlins et bisous

Thank you Debra! I felt happy the whole time I was painting it! (Except I got a little nervous when I was almost finished:))

Candy,,,, oh this is just what I needed today.. It's easy to see your an animal lover.

Yes, there are quite a few sites on the internet that offer copyright photos for artists.

Pixabay is one and Wet Canvas, and Paint my Photo and I'm sure many others.

I'm glad you like it, Barbra Joan! Yes, I'm definitely an animal lover. Thank you for the names of the sites. I'm a member of Wet Canvas, but I hadn't heard of the others.
