6-Year-Old’s Paintings Look Straight Out of a Museum

Oh my goodness, he's going to be an artist. When he was nine months old, he started painting walls like any child would do. We started to put little drawings of a lion to see if he knew. And then he kept the idea and he just did it by himself. When he paints, he feels like the king of the painting. He's been growing up and he's doing better any time on the painting. Most of the big paintings are animals because he loves animals. Any animal, he loves them. We went to an exposition of Van Gogh. He loved the exposition of him. So he started doing a whale with a Van Gogh thing on the back. And he took the artist Van Gogh and he made him his own technique. He can see maybe a sunset. He will not draw it exactly like the sunset, but he will do the feeling that he has about that sunset. No one tells him why not to paint. He paints whatever he feels with his own heart and technique. When we want to buy paintings for him, he gets so wild. I know that the feeling of painting is inside his soul. He has a painting soul. The longest painting that he did was his cat Tommy. He made hair by hair in the painting. Almost three days to make the painting. He learned how to do shadows and light. He gets very happy when he learns a new technique of drawing. And he's proud of his works. He wants to be a picture animator. He goes to a movie and then he likes to draw the little movie. He's not been growing up like most of the child. And he used to be more aware of painting than being on a cellular. Most of the kids now likes to use the cellular to see the games. Santiago wants to inspire all the children to teach all of them the art of painting. Thank you for watching, bye!
