Straight From the Horse's Brush
Justin, the horse, is quite the artist. After his owner discovered he could draw shapes in the sand with her crop, she gave the horse a paintbrush. The rest is history.
Justin's paintings sell for hundreds of dollars and an auction of his work will benefit the American Saddlebred Museum when they go up for sale this weekend.
No word on whether he gets paid in carrots or oats.
