Hmm.. The video doesn't seems to show him in process. Stephen Wiltshire has several time-lapses and videos of him in various stages of the drawing process. Maybe we'll get a reporter that records a time lapse at some point, or maybe not if it's really the work of an adult.
- akuji1993 8y agoI know it's not always Occam's razor, but in this case I tend to be the party pooper. This was probably drawn by an adult and now they try to make it a story. There are amazing young artists out there, but this kind of detail, the boy either learned how to draw one or two specific pictures again and again or somebody has helped with this. I might also be wrong and we've seen the next art child prodigy, but I doubt it.

- akuji1993 8y agoThat obviously couldn't be taught by an adult, so the child would be able to specifically draw that one picture...
- drcode 8y agoYeah, a timelapse of his full process would be appropriate evidence here. If one exists and someone could share a link that would be great.
- ainiriand 8y agoTake this with a grain of salt. But I have a friend that is a very bright artist since she was a child. Not this level of skill, but really really close with the chalks. I say that it is 'possible' but unlikely.
