Stephen Wiltshire isn’t your average artist ― he can draw cityscapes entirely from memory. Wiltshire, who was diagnosed with autism at age 3, would sketch images of the wilderness and caricatures of his teachers as a young boy. After one teacher began to take notice of his capabilities, she entered his work in art competitions, which garnered him local recognition. At just 8 years old, he was commissioned by the British prime minister to draw the Salisbury Cathedral, according to a profile by National Geographic last week. But the elite aren’t the only ones who have been following Wiltshire’s work.
