Being an artist is better then being bacon



Since Pigs are in the news in a big way and the press is not good, I thought I would cover a story that "paints" piggies in a better light. These two little porkers live on a farm called Penneywell Farm in the United Kingdom. There owners are arts and craft type folks. The pigs got into some non-toxic paint in the studio and got it on their feet and snouts. Being crafters, the humans decided to put the pigs on a canvas and to see what would happen. The results? A beautiful painting. The two little cutie-patooties are now painting on a regular basis to raise money for the Farm Crisis Network. After reading this story, Linda got a glint in her eye. I think she wants to see what kind of artwork a paint-covered Chorkie could create.
