A chimpanzee looking at you with a slight smile, painted in turquoise, violet and indigo with the face in pale lilac and the amber eyes as the warm notes. The hair is laid in long strokes that run off the bottom of the sheet in drips, and there are peach, pink and green splashes above. It is a portrait format. One collector bought several of my chimpanzees to give to a sanctuary. The baby chimpanzee and the colourful chimp are the others.
Why it is a limited edition
Each print is made in an edition of 150, and I sign and number every copy in pencil under the image. The edition is small so that every copy can be made properly: the file is scanned from the painting itself, printed on museum-quality cotton paper with archival pigment inks, compared with the original in daylight and corrected until the colours match, and only then signed. When the last copy is sold, the edition closes for good.
Paper, inks and sizes
- Archival pigment inks on acid-free, museum-quality watercolor paper, so the texture of the original is kept
- Framed canvas options in a black wooden frame, ready to hang
- 15 sizes, from 8 x 10 in (20 x 26 cm) to 40 x 55 in (100 x 140 cm)
- Small sizes ship flat in rigid cardboard, large sizes rolled in a hard tube, worldwide with tracking
The frame is not included unless the option says Framed Canvas. Not sure which size fits your wall? Write to me with the width of the furniture under it and I will suggest one. Reproduction rights remain with the artist.

I purchased several chimpanzee prints and mugs from SlaviART and donated them to Save the Chimps (savethechimps.org), a non-profit organization located in Florida dedicated to providing permanent sanctuary for the lifelong care of chimpanzees rescued from research laboratories, the pet trade, and the entertainment industry. The items will be part of an online auction to help raise money for the chimps. Slaveika and Luke went above and beyond and shipped my large order right away with express shipping at no extra cost (only took 2 days from Bulgaria to US) and they also included a couple of extra chimp prints as gifts. Everything is just beautiful! I can’t thank you enough for your kindness. The chimps thank you too! You guys truly are animal lovers!
