Autistic artist draws 18ft picture of New York fro, by melmoth on Nov 2, 2009 22:59:03 GMT 1, When I first saw this headline, I was wondering why someone would draw an 18ft picture of an afro.
I really need to get more sleep.

I remember as a youngster myself seeing Stephen on TV about his autism and being able to memerize a building or city scape and drawing it perfectly. Always wondered what happened to him. What an incredible talent!

Autistic artist draws 18ft picture of New York fro, by Urban Cowboy on Nov 2, 2009 23:38:06 GMT 1, I bought 5 originals from Stephen about 3 years ago, one of my biggest and best purchases.
One of the pieces was of the block of flats I lived in, I counted the floors of the block and of the block next door. 18 floors in my building and 29 in the one next door. He was spot on!
My favourite piece I bought was just a simple one of a London Red Routemaster, apparently it is the best selling print of his. Lovely simple image. A visit to his shop/gallery is well worth it.
