A Summer Sidhe singer might simply break into primal screams in the middle of the song just because he felt like it. Pure Summer painting would probably bear a notable resemblance to a toddler's crayon marks all over the wall...and it might be hard to keep a Summer Sidhe focused on a project for long.
Although note that in actual folklore, fae music is not only pleasing to the ear, but literally enchanting. Maybe it makes you unable to stop dancing, or draws you in to your doom towards some bloodthirsty nymph intent on drowning you and stealing your soul ... or maybe its just good for partying and feasting (never mind that when you leave the feast, despite seeming only one evening, the world will have aged by hundreds of years and everyone you knew and loved will have long since died. Oh, and if your feet touch the ground, all that time catches up with you and you crumble to dust).
