Gloucester Old Spot Pig, Watercolour Illustration

Gloucester Old Spot pig watercolour painting

Pigs make a lovely subject for a painting. I sold the original painting long ago but have prints of this particular pig and others in my shop.

The Gloucester Old Spot is a rare breed, a pedigree pig. As its name suggests, it was popular in parts of Gloucester, where it was known as the “Orchard Pig.” http://www.britishpigs.org.uk/breed_gs.htm
