Meet Pigcasso, the painting pig. Rescued from a slaughterhouse by a South African animal rights activist at four weeks old, Pigcasso gained her name after showing a curious talent for art. After being given a variety of toys, including a few paintbrushes, Pigcasso became so enamored with picking up and playing with those paintbrushes that they decided to see what would happen if they left out some paint and canvas, too.

Today, Pigcasso seems to love dipping the brush in multicolored paint and dragging it across the canvas. And she’s not the only one who’s into her painting. Pigcasso, who lives in a sanctuary in South Africa dedicated to the recovery of former farm animals, now has her own gallery, and people seem to love her work, paying up to $2,000 for an original, with all proceeds going to the farm, of course.

So now the challenge is out to all animal sanctuaries, what animal Rembrandts do you have in your sanctuary? With all the creativity in the Northwest, we’re sure there’s plenty of hidden animal artists just waiting to be discovered!
