A Small Milestone...

Today's post marks the 100th original frame for This Little Piggy... !

You may be able to tell - This Little Piggy... is a true labor of love for me. I have long since stopped chasing the dream that there is a place for me as a professional artist, and now have a full-time career in the non-art (anti-art?) world of manufacturing. There is no pretense that this will lead to something bigger, or earn me extra money or whatever. This Little Piggy... has never generated a penny, nor do I expect it ever will. But I am driven to carve out a little piece of every day to get these pictures, notions and phrases out of my head and into the world of This Little Piggy... I need this outlet, and I would love to think someone got something out of it besides me.

As I generally say on the rare occasion I get a comment or any feedback on a post: thank you, glad you enjoy it and hope you come back. This Little Piggy... will see 200 frames and who knows how many more.
