That is impossible to answer as it was developed by numerous people all over the world for untold millennia. The oldest undeniable examples of paintings come from western Europe. The oldest of these are the 40,800 year old paintings of El Castillo Cave in northern Spain. There has been some debate as to whether anatomically modern humans or Neanderthals, an older species of human, created these. Both were in the area at the time. One archaeologist involved in the dating of the paintings stated: "We see evidence for earlier human symbolism in the form of perforated beads, engraved egg shells and pigments in Africa 70-100,000 years ago." This means art is very old. There is even a possibility that it predates the genus Homo (humans). Great apes like chimps, gorillas, and orangutans love to paint if given access to materials. They do not do it in the wild, though, because their lives are more concerned with survival. This doesn't mean that the joint human-ape ancestor did not do art at some point in the past.
