Paintings of pigs were sold for millions of rupees!

The Dhaka Times Desk Did anyone ever think that pigs could draw pictures? Again, his paintings are sold for millions of rupees! This is exactly what happened.

In 2016, a woman rescued a four-week-old piglet from a local slaughterhouse and brought it home. The woman is a painter by profession. While staying with him, one day, the pet chick suddenly picked up paint and started scratching on the canvas placed in front of him. He was named 'Pigkaso' because of his love for colors. Each of these paintings by Pigkaso is currently selling for around 2 to 3 lakh rupees!

The piglet is now quite large. Many renowned artists of the world have caught the attention of the 'abstract art' style pictures painted by him. That's why he got a lot of nicknames, everyone knows him as Pigkaso. Several of Pigkaso's paintings have already gone viral on social media as well.

It is known that a painting by Pigasso was sold for 4 thousand US dollars last year. The money, however, is donated to the Wildlife Conservation Fund.
