Pink little piggie

At the request of Jennifer's sister. I made my first and probably only outdoor pig for her son's grave. He was taken way too early in life and had a beautiful grave. I was really honored that she asked me to create something special for him. Her nickname for him was piggie and it all stemmed from there. I wanted it to be able to handle the elements (which I hope it does) and also be cute. I made this aluminum angel pig and colored it pink. It has floppy ears, wings, a curly tale and a draw knob for a nose. I also wanted to make sure he knew it was his, so I put a K on there for him. It has metal legs that were staked into the ground. Not the best construction but it was my first try. I hope it stays for awhile.
