"Wikipedia":

"What would happen if pigs could fly?
If pigs could fly, how would life be different? We'd all carry umbrellas to keep from getting pelted with the massive amount of waste generated by pigs. We would have to reinforce our roofs to take the weight of a 500-pound pig landing on it. It would also redefine wing shooting."

pigge

Middle English pigge "a young pig" (mid-13c., late 12c. as a surname), probably from Old English *picg, found in compounds, but, like "Dog", its further etymology is unknown. The older general word for adults was swine, if female, sow if male, boar. Related to Low German bigge, Dutch big ("but the phonology is difficult" -- OED).

That is the beauty of today's possibilities, a tool that can "do it all", in a blink of an eye, without question...
To me, it is an journey unprecedented, where illusive creative options, in abundance and abilities, are available.
It still takes effort and skill, to make something to your liking (image) in one go, adapt to the way of writing Prompts for AI, new edit and effects apps to work with, promotion inclusive, in no time, when pigs fly.
+20 hrs of work before a final, composed out of 5 images, artwork appeared.
It all started when a report that Birdsflu may be transmittable to pigs, shortly…
That triggered my fantasy, and chose the farmland to be located in NL.
Everything is possible, but it still is The Art of Looking.
