Hog raising
Agriculture is one main livelihood of the Philippines. I painted this for a contest held by a company that ensures the health of pigs with their feeds. They stopped by our school and went to the artists. As a form of advertisement for their enterprise.
The Artwork

Happy Pigs! Fat pigs is equal to happy farmer.
The Process
The process starts with finding the subject
I asked this guy to model for me. My co-artist
Reagan.
Then I took pig pics and drew them
Aha! There they are.
Then! The farmer

Our professor always said, for originality use your own reference photos or create your own.
I paint it with base tone, midtone and light tone.
As you can see, the ears are almost popping out!
Then its done
This is one of my very first paintings.
I enjoyed drawing the pigs a lot and I think its really funny that I got to draw my friend as well.
Have an awesome day!
