Cholla - The Painting Horse

It’s official, animals are talented painters, if the painting elephants weren’t proof enough, now Cholla, a painting horse shows her skill.

A mustan-quarter horse with incredible painting talent, Cholla’s works have recently been accepted into an art exhibition that will take place in Montigliano Veneto, Italy. She will be competing against 1,770 renowned artists from all over the world, and we’re talking humans, so yes, this horse has enough talent to match up to human artists. She won’t be able to claim the cash prizes if she wins but she will get a special mention.

Cholla’s career began when her owner, who also paints as a hobby, bought some water colors, mixed them up, glued a piece of paper to a fence, and put the brush in the horses mouth. Cholla started stroking and she never stopped, in fact she got better and better and now she’s a star in the USA.
