Susie was a research pig whom the researcher fell in love with. She and her sister Valerie were saved from slaughter (as is the fate of many research farmed animals) and has lived at Animal Place since she was six months old. She's now 8!
Many thanks again to Sam Dolman who so patiently helped me figure out how to put that cool little widget on the side. Sam sent me to HERE on ebay to get the code to insert into the widgets on the customize page. I just had to figure out how to resize it a bit because the code was written for a blog post. Lil' Susie is 6x6 oil on panel.

Definetely not the one that went to the market.
Love the freshness in the brush strokes.

Love your painting of Sweet Susie. My daughter-in-law has a miniature pot-belly pig who she calls Baby. He is the cutest thing and a great conversationalist.
Susie is sweet indeed Sheila!
