2. I got a no-shit 100%
Although I have no idea how.

I was pretty sure that #4 and #6 were done by an artist. The rest were just guesses.

Got the first one wrong. You can see intent in the ones by artists.

Paintings by humans, even if abstract, convey a sense of design, proportion, color coordination, etc. Those by apes seem random and accidental... except when they -- wow -- don't. Very interesting.

13. That was easy.
Your score is 100%.
But why does it have to be one or the other?
Can't an ape be an artist?
LOL.
