^She's never had a way worth words so the baboons do most of the leg work,media releases and act as press/publicity liaison and handle show bookings.....the elephant just creates.....like a Warhol "Factory" scheme.....artist's can be so damned tempermental....

My dog likes to play the piano and sing. Actually, it's an electric keyboard, and when he wants to play it, he'll sit on top and growl at whoever else is in the room to turn it on. Then he slides the volume switch all the way up and proceeds to rock out. He only plays notes in a small range (basically his vocal range and notes a little higher) and sometimes has distinctivley different types of "songs."

I think he actually prefers it when I play notes and hold them for a little while, so that he can howl and try to match the pitch, but neither myself or my dad are willing to do that for as long as he wants to sing so he had to take matters into his own paws. Problem it, he isn't dextrous enough to push only one key at the time.

I'm not sure why he likes to, but he definetly loves to do it, as I'm sure that dog loves to paint. Whether they feel like they're expressing themselves or creating something or it's something as simple as that painting dog likes how paint feels on its paws, we can never know.

On an interesting note, dogs can see much more color than origionally thought. I forget which side of the spectrum it is.... its the opposite of whatever colors humans see best... I guess for us we see warm colors the best? So then it's purples and blues than they can see really well and differentiate between, and reds and oranges not so much. I think I got that the right way.

Oh yeah, and there are several cats that paint too.
