About The Artist

Social Media - @anitagpaints

My inspiration and motivation to create art and raise money for pig sanctuaries both stem from a deep connection to these animals that resonates with me on a personal level. I grew up on a farm and pigs were part of my daily life. As an adult I developed a profound appreciation for their intelligence, character, and capacity for love. They hold a special place in my heart, shaping my understanding of compassion and the interconnectedness of all living beings. This plus my nostalgia for the pigs of my past adds to the significance of this cause.

For me, art is a celebration of life and its wonders, a way to convey joy, positivity, and the beauty that surrounds us. Each stroke of color and whimsical detail reflects the world I dream of—full of brightness, charm, and endless opportunities..Through my art, I aim to raise awareness, inspire support, and make a meaningful impact on the lives of these incredible creatures who have brought so much joy and inspiration into my life.
