Youth's inspirational art makes us want to pick up a paintbrush

12/27/2012

Anyone who thinks people with physical disabilities have no capacity for art may want to turn their attention to young Nate, who has been working on his paintings for about a year. One painting by this aspiring artist received a surge of viral positive feedback after his proud dad posted it on Reddit this week. The cool landscape boasts fluid, purple brush strokes, smooth ocean curves and awesome white bird wings that, though slightly stick-like, nevertheless look more like feathers than anything we could come up with. Add a neatly penned signature and this guy is on his way to a masterpiece. Keep up the good work, Nate! [Source]
