Pig Painting–Vindicator
8x10 Oil on Canvas
Cheri Wollenberg
My grandson is raising pigs as a project for 4-H and Stock Shows. “Perry” his gilt pig had a litter of 13 baby pigs two months ago. He now has less than that because a few of them died and he will be selling a few to other children as show pigs. Vindicator, above, is a pig that he acquired after all these other pigs. He is about a month older than the others. He named this pig after Vindicator in the movie, “The Rare Breed” with Jimmy Stewart and Maureen O’Hara. In the movie Vindicator was a Hereford bull that was left to a lady and her daughter by the wife’s deceased husband. They take the bull from England to a cattle breeder in Texas. Vindicator leaves a legacy of the Hereford, a “rare breed”. My grandson believes Vindicator will enhance his pig herd to be a “rare breed”
Vindicator is for sale in my Etsy store here.

Not quite through with the pears my grandson brought to me I decided to arrange them in a Blue Willow Bowl for a painting composition. I like them. Below I placed one of the pears beside the painting to give blog readers an idea of how large the painted ones are. I enjoyed this….hope to do a few more before they completely go bad. They are already drawing fruit flies . To purchase this painting follow this link:
