Extraordinary People....Stephen Wiltshire.?

Question

He is totally amazing this young man. Did you see the sketches of his favourites buildings in London and elsewhere?.

Answer 1

yes amazing talent,loved his drawings of the buildings especially

Answer 2

Yes I've just watched that programme on t.v., he is astounding and I've worked with people like Stephen with Autism before and when they are talented at something in particular I think they are much more focused because the 'normal' world around them cannot distract their attention which is a great advantage, particularly for an artist.

Answer 3

yep, its amazing of how he looks at the whole of london for 10-15 minutes in a helicopter and draws them by memory from his brain onto a long sheet of paper with viewers looking at it.

his sketches were so finely detailed without any spot missing

Answer 4

yes, Stephen's artisitc abilities are amazing.   But what I also find so special has been his ability to overcome so many of the disadvantages of autism to become a competent, coping, socially adept adult.
