Be inspired by the extraordinary paintings from a young autistic artist from England.
The Artist
She is best known for her early work at aged four but has continued to paint while growing up in Leicestershire near Market Harborough. Her talent to express herself through painting astonished the world as at that time she was not speaking. Iris’s mother Arabella Carter-Johnson shares her art to inspire and raise awareness of her condition.
The story is published Globally and Iris sells paintings to private art collectors in the UK and all over the world including Angelina Jolie.
