From the link:
The video is real, but it's important to note that the elephant painting this "self-portrait" -- a male by the name of Paya who resides in the Maesa Elephant Camp in Chiang Mai, Thailand -- has been painstakingly trained to produce this image, and may even be receiving off-camera hand or voice directions from a "mahout," or trainer.

I say...I didn't really expect the elephant painted like that without training. I'm still impressed!!
