These artists have made a real pig’s ear of their work – but still raised £150 for charity.

Rodney and Del Boy, two miniature piglets, have been hogging the limelight with their unique works of art.

The pair of budding Porkassos, knows as Trotters’ Independent Painters, are just as at home rolling around in paint as they are in mud.

Pinto the Pig

Pinto, an accomplished painter for a Yucatan miniature pig, gets his snout into an original work of art on Feb. 23, 2006, at Brookfield Zoo in Brookfield, Ill. Using a selection of non-toxic primary colors, Pinto mixes them in innovative ways (hooves, snout, objects and sometimes food items) to create his one-of-a-kind masterpieces.
