The Daily Boost #662

We never know exactly what's inside

Stephen Wiltshire is a British artist who was diagnosed with autism when he was three years old. Though he had difficulty communicating verbally, he loved to draw, especially from memory.

Stephen has turned his talent into a career as an architectural artist. He has an extraordinary ability to recreate cityscapes in incredible detail, based entirely on his recollection of them.

I venture to say that the “landscapes” within Stephen are even more remarkable than the cityscapes he draws.
