The Bubble-gum Pig

I forgot to take photos earlier. I did have a thin wash of an orangey-pink on the pig, and the background. I just wanted to get it finished this morning, not because I liked it, but I wanted to get it off the board so I could start another pig, or maybe the filly.

Once I started working on it, the little hummer began to grow on me! I played with some warm and cool pinks, working w/w, going all over the pig. I began to think he looked pretty good.

At this point, I believe he is "done", but you know I always love to touch up.  The name "Bubble-gum Pig" I think appropriate because of his color, and because it sounds a bit frivolous. :)

As always, your comments are most welcome!

  1. I love it! Great expression! The addition of the red stripes is great too. He looks to me like Bing Crosby (may he rest in peace -- anyway, he had a sense of humor, right?)

  9. You gave me a chuckle--it's not just the title that's frivolous it's the pig too! You are funny. This is a great painting. I love its playful originality.
