A very attractive piggy and very sensible too. A belated Happy Birthday to your mum Robert.

That's great Robert. He's got a very knowing eye and bags of character, love the composition too. Great card for your mum, I bet she loved it. Its odd that a lot of people like pigs...?? I had a friend who collected figurines, it was like visiting a porcelain piggery.

I am sure she would have been happy to receive this. Very nice :)

Oink oink . Or Nufnuf if you live in Scandinavia .

Lol, mum must have been delighted Robert. I like that sneaky eye.

What a fab piggy Robert, I bet your mum enjoyed having this card.

Loads of character, a mischievous look in his eye. An element of humour , well depicted.

Thank'ee kindly. T'was but a sketch, but yes, mother was pleased. She's quite EASILY pleased, come to think of it... She also, Lewis, collects figurines, models of pigs, pictures of pigs: whenever she's taken out in my brother's car, she has to stop to commune with any pigs in fields or, indeed, elsewhere. If you were wondering where my occasional strangeness comes from ..... well, father was barking mad, too...

A great card Robert, hope your mother had a snorker of a day for her birthday!

It's rather comical I must say, he's got the slyest look on him. I also love pigs!

All right, it's not up to Lewis Cooper's standards - but it's a bit of fun, innit? This was my birthday card for my mother's 92nd birthday the other week. She likes pigs; and I suggested that at her age, she should go for the low-hanging fruit.... Chromacolour on watercolour paper, more or less A4.
