He's a goat, but he's also an artist
New Mexico: A four-year-old goat in the US dubbed 'Vincent van Goat' has learned how to paint, and the animal's colourful artwork is selling for as much as USD 40 each.
Bodie, who lives at the Albuquerque Botanic Garden, New Mexico, has spent the last few months being taught how to paint by staff member Kristin Wright.
Bodie's paintings are up for sale at the New Mexico BioPark Society. They sell for about USD 40 each.
"To see a goat actually hold a paint brush in his mouth and paint and he has some accuracy with it and some talent yeah that's unique," said Albuquerque Zoo Manager Lynn Tupa. Bodie, with a paint brush in its mouth, showed off its artistic skills at the Rio Grande Heritage Farm over the weekend, 'KRQE News 13' reported. Lynda Shey, who was among the crowd that watched the goat paint, said that she was ready to shell out maybe "a couple thousand" if Bodie painted a sheep.
