Really? I mean seriously? I’m bout to get a canvas, dump a bunch of sharpies on it and go buck wild smearing them in. :eek3 > > Angela Di Bello, the gallery’s director, chose Aelita’s artwork without knowing the little girl’s age. “I saw great colors, great movement, great composition and very playful, and I thought, ‘This is fantastic. Who is this person?’ Only to find out, she’s a child,” Di Bello [told NBC New York](http://www.nbcnewyork.com/the-scene/events/Pre-Schooler--123145488.html). The 24 paintings on exhibit at the Agora Gallery are priced from $4,400 to $10,000 each. In 2009, one of her paintings (created when she was just 2 years old) sold for $24,000 during a Hong Kong exhibition.

what kind of moron pays that kind of money for that mess? Its worse than people paying for art done by that painting elephant. Atleast the elephant has some kind of talent because not every elephant can paint but every kid can make a mess. ---
