Aelita Andre, artist, aged 2

The boss of a top art gallery got the shock of his life when he found out his new "star" was a two-year-old.

Mark Jamieson was thrilled by the vivid abstracts of Aelita Andre.

He exhibited them and ran them in magazines after they had been recommended by photographer Nikka Kalashnikova.

After discovering Aelita was Nikka's baby daughter, Mark - whose gallery is in Melbourne, Australia - admitted: "I was shocked and a little embarrassed."

I think it is in the end a really good painting. Picasso always said it took his whole live to learn to paint like a child

everybody talking here have no idea what are they talking about. Take a book and learn something before say nonsenses about art. This is a beautiful girl enjoying the paint like any kid but with better stuff and hunger money parents

Emotionless abstract , shapeless, if you want shapeless true art, draw earth before it formed, where oceans bled into the sky.All she's doing is smearing and playing with paint, and the fool who buys it, praying for you dude,

@24sunny2408 Spontaneity makes for exciting painting....many adult artists would kill to lose their inhibitions. Do you actually think that all art needs to replicate something in life? Art is the freedom to create whatever you damn well please....if it makes you happy (reward), and then someone else seems to like it (connection), then that is the beauty of art.
