Story

A 1-year-old boy in Ghana named Ace-Liam became the youngest male artist in the Guinness World Records. His paintings were shown in a museum and he sold nine out of ten pieces. To get this recognition, he had to make art like a professional, show it in public, sell one piece, and prove he did the work himself. His mom, Chantelle, who is also an artist, is proud of him. She noticed he liked painting when she gave him paint to play with. He enjoys it a lot and chooses his own colors and canvas. Chantelle thinks he's bringing attention to art. Ace-Liam's mom is happy about his talent and hopes he becomes a famous artist. She saw his skill when he was just six months old. To get the record, he had to display his art in public and sell it. He sold most of his pieces and even got a commission from the First Lady of Ghana. Chantelle was working on a painting when Ace-Liam got interested in the colors. She thinks his art is putting Ghana on the map. She wants him to look up to famous artists like Jackson Pollock and Damian Hirst. Chantelle encourages parents to support their kids' talents early on. Ace-Liam now has his own studio, thanks to his mom, where he can create more art.
