In Huxley’s Animal Farm, the pigs are there, give the manager. But this picture still fits well in Huxley’s story.
Animal Farm would work in a illustrated version – with just a few hints of the people behind the animals.

I love the line art of this era. Pen and ink or etching, I am always inspired by them.
I am too – this is an impressive piece of work!

When I was in art school I was always told this kind of work was too busy! I always disagreed! I love this. The bull looks really sure of himself.
Yes, is he a bully?
Art school . . . a few years to go to it and a lifetime to undo all the nonsense!
My best,
Elephant
Fantastic drawing! Thanks for stopping by my blog, too. Jane
Oh my, I am going to follow you!

That dog looks like such a grouch!
Love the detail in this.
The amount of skill that went into making this, so impressive.
Hi Brenda!
