The posture is alert and a little indignant, as if it just heard something it wasn't supposed to. Eduardo has carved the form with wonderful roundness, every surface smooth and full.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe painting is a delight. Deep raspberry pink covers everything, overlaid with thousands of small white oval drops that give the body a texture like rain on still water. The big amber ears are lined along their edges with fine teal dashes. The eyes are amber gold with dark outlines that give the face real expression. The snub nose is soft pink with two teal nostrils. Dark chocolate hooves. A curly ixtle tail that is frankly perfect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePigs were introduced to Oaxaca with the Spanish, but in Eduardo's hands, they have become something entirely their own. Joyful, a little cheeky, and very much alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin: Oaxaca \u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 10.5''Tall 6.5''Long 5.5''Wide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sandia Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48480497107193,"sku":"65366EJ","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0245\/1069\/3451\/files\/EduardoJimenezPiglet_SandiaFolk7264.jpg?v=1780682202","url":"https:\/\/www.sandiafolk.com\/products\/eduardo-jimenez-piglet-w","provider":"Sandia Folk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
