Impossibly Amazing Elephant Art

Writing about elephant art is not my usual fare, but it's so astounding I had to share.

If you haven't seen this beautifully made portrait of an elephant made by an elephant, watch the whole thing - it is well worth the time, as you may never have imagined that any non-human animal could be so adroit, graceful and artistic.

Absolutely beautiful image - I'd be pleased to call it my own, to call it elephant art.

This particular elephant is a male born in 2002 named "Paya," which means "excellence." He's only been painting for a couple of years.

There is much to learn from this incredible display of intelligence, dexterity and artistic sense by this marvelous elephant and all the others as well.
