RAPID CITY, S.D. – You have to wonder if the paint brushes were coated with honey.
A piece of artwork at a South Dakota fair is now sporting a second place ribbon after it was judged for its color, composition and uninhibited expression.
However, it wasn't submitted by a descendant of Van Gogh, it was painted by a bear.
The bear is named Kobe.
The judges had no idea who the painting was done by as they were voting - they just saw it as a work of art.
An artist and volunteer at Bear Country USA submitted the painting.
