'Here boy!'
My painting hopes to bridge the gap between the animals typically seen as food, and animals we would consider 'pets'. Living a life of compassion towards all creatures means there is no difference. Meet Fido the pig! Pigs are on par with a dogs intelligence, and around the same as a 3 year old human child!
