DUBBED “pint-sized Picasso”, two-year-old Laurent Schwarz’s paintings caught the eye of art collectors and earned him customers worldwide.
When other kids are just learning to use their crayons and watercolors, the German toddler is already busy creating colorful paintings using brushes, rollers, and spatulas.
Each of these paintings sells for thousands of dollars, with the most expensive one priced at nearly $7,000.
The toddler’s art pieces were also being displayed in art fairs which made him the youngest exhibitor most of the time. His artworks were also featured in newspapers.
His parents discovered their son’s talent for art during a family vacation in Italy in September last year when the boy could not take away his gaze from a painting in the hotel room.
Laurent’s parents did not waste time setting up his mini studio and uploaded his artwork online.
Little did they know that a simple upload would open doors for their son’s talent to gain international attention and allow him to earn huge amounts of money at such a young age.
His parents make sure they do not force their son to finish each painting right away but allow him to work at his own pace and time to help unleash his creativity.
