<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #3d85c6;">I
am just so amazed with this guy that he can draw panoramas of iconic
cities. He's like a human camera! He once rode a helicopter around New
York city and after 20 minutes, he went on to draw the city with just
the picture of it in his mind. It's amazing how he can remember
everything he saw, and this is not that easy, the details are very small
and even I can't make it alive if I was tasked to draw something like
this. It would take me forever haha. But really, what an amazing man.
God has showered him with blessings and a talent. He is actually
autistic and God gave him an amazing talent. I kept on repeating the
word "amazing" ey? In the movie 'Zambizia' they say amazing as
'amazeng!', awesome right? Okay, back to Mr. Wiltshire, here is his
biography:</span></span><br />

draws and paints detailed cityscapes. He has a particular talent for
drawing lifelike, accurate representations of cities, sometimes after
having only observed them briefly. He was awarded an MBE for services to
the art world in 2006. He studied Fine Art at City & Guilds Art
College. His work is popular all over the world, and is held in a number
of important collections. </span><br style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;" /><br style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;" /><span style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;">Stephen was born in </span><span itemprop="address" itemscope="" itemtype="http://data-vocabulary.org/Address" style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;"><span itemprop="locality">London</span>, <span itemprop="country-name">United Kingdom</span></span><span style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;"> to
West Indian parents on 24th April, 1974. As a child he was mute, and
did not relate to other people. Aged three, he was diagnosed as
autistic. He had no language and lived entirely in his own world. </span><br style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;" /><br style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;" /><span style="color: #404040; font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;">At
the age of five, Stephen was sent to Queensmill School in London, where
it was noticed that the only pastime he enjoyed was drawing. It soon
became apparent he communicated with the world through the language of
drawing; first animals, then London buses, and finally buildings. These
drawings show a masterful perspective, a whimsical line, and reveal a
natural innate artistry.</span></span></div>

is now one of my inspirations. I really wanna pursue art. I just need
some practice and maybe learn some techniques. God has given me this
talent, so I'll make use of it. I really hope that I can develop my
skills soon because I wanna make some art! art attack! hahaha. Anyway,
have a nice and blessed day ahead. God loves you.</span></span></div>
