Some people (who shall remain nameless) thought the flowered shirt was a bit scary. It doesn't look so scary in this image. The scan came out a lot more muted. The original was colored with highlighter markers, and then covered with colored pencil to tone down the neon factor a bit. I took a cell phone picture of it too, to see if that would show the brighter colors. It's a bit better, but still not quite as shocking as real life. Here's the two versions side by side:
The real pig is brighter, and the color is somewhere between these two images.
This pig is obviously the cousin of the pig I painted last year on April 24th for Pig In A Blanket Day and Arbor Day. Maybe today is Pig In A Flowered Shirt Day, but nobody knows it (other than this pig).
Happy
