A 'Berkshire Pig' commission I completed recently. An especially hairy breed, yet unfathomably appealing.
Amid talks of Dachshunds, and Labradors and German Shepherds and Coldstone cakes (an inexplicable aside), I have been thinking about piglets. Call me misguided, but I'd really like one. I was raised on 'The Sheep-Pig' and 'Charlottes Web', so truly I am blameless in my preferences.
I should talk to the boy about this. I think I'm on to something.
I hadn't realised farmyard animals had become such a theme, but browsing through my portfolio....uh-oh, is that a pattern I see emerging?!
Love the drawings! I also adore pigs and recently heard of some pigs in England that are very tiny - I'd love to have one! I keep mentioning it to my sweetie, but so far, no bites! lol nancy
ReplyDeleteWhat a great drawing It could be an illustration in a children's book. Nice line work, too.
ReplyDeleteNice illustration. Is it digital?
ReplyDeleteTiny pigs in England, Nancy?! It seems I have not been doing enough research on the subject. I shall have a tiny piggy AND a mini Dachshund. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteAle', no it isn't digital- just my usual marker pen and fineliner combo :)
Fantastic patches of colors applied. Really makes the pigs stand out. ^^ awesome!
ReplyDeleteTiny pigs? Need to go check that out! This is wonderful! I love the line work and the colors!
ReplyDeletereally nice piggies! I have a mini Dachshund, she's wonderful. appears in many of my illustrations, of course.
ReplyDeleteThose pigs are adorable, and they have eyelashes to die for!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! And who can NOT love a pig! I especially love their eyes! Great job, Louise!
ReplyDeleteGreat work, I love the line work. My neighbours had two Vietnamese pot bellied pigs as pets, a baby one they kept in the flat and a much larger grown up one they kept on their roof top! She was wonderful and much less noise than any dog. Your beautiful drawing brought back memories of her, she used to look and snuffle hello when I called.
ReplyDeleteI love the pigs, and how fun that you used the same colors in the water as the pigs, yet it all works so well.
ReplyDeleteWhat great sketches! Beautiful lines and colours !
ReplyDeleteAwesome style! Love the composition.
ReplyDeletelove these guys. They look so happy and intent on lunch!
