I Love Piggies

Tada! This is my title page for my Royal Winter Fair assignment, but who am I kidding, I drew this for me.

I love pigs. I love them so much, they just make me smile and warm my heart.

While I was at the fair, I met this wonderful pig, who just wanted some loving. Of course, I reached through the bars and scratched its nose! Of course, piggy wanted to smell my hand and wound up pinning my hand against the pen bars and I had a total panic attack, but lesson learned! Reach OVER the pen, not through the pen.

I returned later in the day to draw the same pig- and as I was talking to her and enjoying her nose and trying to get her to sit still so I could draw her- she sneezed on me. All up my arm. It was really icky. I immediately went to a sink to wash it off, but I still love piggies. This is also probably the best cartoon pig I've done to date; as it's no secret that I'm terrible at drawing animals.

Getting better though! One study at a time.

So this is a portrait of me and the beautiful pig from the Royal Winter Fair; having a special moment of bonding that totally didn't happen.

Piggies!
