I’m amazed at the surety of his penstrokes.
Come on. He’s just drawing in the pictures that he sees on the page. That’s cheating.

Aww, what a good mommy.
I don’t remember where I saw it and it seems like it was over 10 years ago, but I saw a video once of a child with autism that drew amazingly detailed drawings in a very unconventional way; they wouldn’t begin with the outline and then fill in details as most of us would, but just began at seemingly random points, almost in reverse order. Like if it was a drawing of a house it might begin with a flower bed rendered in great detail, then move on to the roof, then the walls, etc. It was kind of astonishing.
this sounds amazing, would love to see it if you can find it!
right? so amazing!
