wow.

Love this guy.

He is drawing the Manhattan syline from memory.  He was diagnosed with autism when he was 3, and has a photographic memory.  He looks at something once, then can reproduce it accurately with photographic detail, down to the exact number of columns or windows a building has.

You can watch a movie about him here.

Stephen Wiltshire.

Other cities he’s drawn from memory?
Rome

Tokyo

Just to name a few…

sketch.

Have I mentioned that I love our old, green, velvet lounge chairs?  Just saying.

And I found this sketch, done by The Husband many years ago.  So when he tells you he can’t draw {and he will} you’ll know not too believe him.  I love it.  Straight to the pool room.  Kind of reminds me of Matisse.

Every day that I pick up The Popstar from school, I wait in car line.  I’ve started doing a sketch while I wait.
