The sense of composition is actually pretty interesting, and impressive. You can get a sense of it especially when you look at several paintings together. I saw an original of one of the "Cheeta" paintings on a friend's wall just the other week. It was not unlike the one you included in this Point. I'm not sure how old Cheeta was when he painted it, since that particular Chimp apparently lived (lives?) to be pretty old, like almost double the expected life expectancy.

its a good looking painting, although there is something suspicious about the even borders. i smell a human. yeah i guess cheeta was one of the oldest living chimps on record and still alive i believe, the fact that he took his vitamin 'p' must have had something to do with it! cheeta must be the greatest artist of all the great apes
