The first two years of his life, 4-year-old prodigy Adwait Kolarcar spent in his native India, until in 2016 his mother and father decided not to move to Canada. Despite the young age, the boy has already managed to participate in a variety of exhibitions, where his paintings were presented on a par with the work of adult artists. In the list of the latest achievements of Advaita - art fair ArtExpo in New York; the boy became her youngest participant in the last 40 years.

The paintings of the 4-year-old artist are already popular among buyers from all over the world: his work is purchased for hundreds, and sometimes thousands of dollars, writes BBC. Since moving to Canada, the boy's parents have sold dozens of his paintings, having managed to help out for them a total of about $ 55 thousand.

According to the parents of Advaita, he became interested in creating paintings, even when he was about a year old. One day, his work showed art criticism and he noted that the paintings of the boy are not just children's doodles: they are quite worthy of attention as full-fledged works of art.

"Most children just see the colors of several colors in front of them and mix them up, creating a big mess," says Sandar Altwiger, a teacher at the Ontario College of Art and Design. - This is another case: this child is planning everything carefully, he is very keen on what he does. This is very unusual. Of course, you never know what it can end. I saw many young artists who were very gifted, but then lost interest in creativity. You never know how everything will be ".
