What you see here is elephant art. It was painted by an African elephant named Hadari who lives down at the Nashville Zoo. Steph and I saw a gallery of elephant art at the mall around Christmas time and thought they were so neat, so I got her one for Christmas.
Since the winter-time forces the elephants inside for several months, they give the elephants projects to do, like painting. Basically they put an easel in front of them with a bunch of paint cans w/ brushes to choose from. The elephant picks up brush and paints on the canvas, and there you have it... elephant art!
And you ask, why did it take me three months to post about this? I have no idea. I'm sorry.
But it is neat isn't it?

we have 2 of Hadari's works framed and hanging on our walls as well. She's quite the talented elephant!
Hi there! I have some elephant art as well and would like to buy some more- do you remember what mall you got it at? Was it Cool Springs? Thanks!
