Here's Kokomo -- Again

Like other true artists, Kokomo, the chimpanzee, finds inspiration giving him the brush-off as he attempts to fill commission to do painting for Walls of Fame Restaurant in New York.  He pushes away first attempt with a gesture of contempt, and ponders mightily with brish in fist and mouth.  At last comes inspiration.  Kokomo brushes off beret, slaps forehead, and is ready for real art.  Beret on, what artist could work without one, Kokomo begins with gusto, and, of course, with brush. -- (AP Wirephoto)
