Pigcasso was saved from the slaughterhouse in 2016 by Farm Sanctuary SA founder Joanne Lefson; today, she earns her keep by selling incredible artworks.


Pigcasso is a 200-kilogram pig from the Western Cape province of South Africa. She has made her mark on the local and international art scene by painting abstract artwork using a brush and her snout. She was named after the renowned Spanish artist Pablo Picasso.

Joanne Lefson saved her from the slaughterhouse and brought her home to the Farm Sanctuary SA. The sanctuary is a haven for rescued livestock and is now home to the famous pig’s painting studio. It is located in the town of Franschhoek. Her colourful abstract paintings have been sold for thousands of dollars, all in the name of the sanctuary.

Her latest artwork, “Wild and Free”, has made history!

The magnificent Masterpiece that has inspired a global record and has been sold to a German investor for £20,000 British pounds (11 million naira).

Farm Sanctuary SA takes in farm animals of all kinds. Their Facebook page shares pictures of baby goats, woolly sheep, cheeky roosters and, as you can see, artistic pigs. The funds raised through Pigcasso’s artworks are used to provide care and more to every animal at the sanctuary.

Yeah. I know. I'm still saying it's the rubbish drawing. But Advanced Level Drawing. The larger the template/canvas and bigger 'her' (the pig) drawing, the higher their values abi?
