This pig escaped his date with the butcher's knife when he surprised the farmer with his oink-tastic painting talent.

Most pigs would rather spend their time eating and getting messy, but not Pigcasso.

The special pig is taking the world by storm with her fine talent of painting. Pigcasso uses her talent to make money to support her fellow pigs. How nice!

Pigcasso was rescued, along with her sister Rosie, from a farming factory operation in the Western Cape last year.


According to thesouthafrican.com, Pigcasso’s paintings sell online for thousands of rands and can be bought on farmsanctuarysa.org. Her painting videos, like the one below, have reached more than 20 million views across all social media platforms.



But painting isn’t the only thing Pigcasso loves to do. She also loves to eat, sleep and even explore the outdoors. A pig who knows how to balance her job with the finer things in life. 

See some of Pigcasso’s paintings in the below video.
