Is Your Child Messing With Paints? Encourage Him…

Kieron will make more money than Monet

His name is Kieron Williamson and he is a child art prodigy. If you haven’t heard of him yet, be assured that you will – and often. He is already being hailed as a Mini- Monet. He held an exhibition in England this week to showcase his work and left the exhibition with more than £100,000 (about $160,000) in his pocket after all his paintings were snatched up by eager buyers. No different to any other child his age, the boy wonder still wears his school uniform while playing with friends after school in the lane outside his house or zooming around on inline skates.

Money

Some parents who have their eyes on a secure old age for themselves via a child who will be earning huge amounts of money in years to come, will opt for football, tennis or car racing as a means to a secure old age. A career in art is something else entirely.

Talent

Kieron lives in the English countryside. Many would say that it is not exactly the place where you would find a child prodigy who later that evening would be on his way to his first art exhibition to fill his pockets with huge amount of money. But the real question is, where do you expect to find these talented children? What sets them apart from the rest? The reality is despite his talent he is just like any other kid and you would expect to find him amused in activities that others his age partake in.

A 7 year-old

It was only two years ago when the seven-year-old made a ripple from his skills with pastels and acrylics depicting the countryside near his home in Norfolk. How work attracted the praise of many and soon had a waiting list of 680 buyers. During that time the interest in the young British artist has grown fast, with a waiting list of nearly 6,000 people including Americans, Chinese and Germans who are all keen to get their hands on a Kieron original.

Paintings

Some of Kieron’s paintings which he sold for £2,000 have gone on to sell for £10,000. At his fifth exhibition, so far his greatest success, he sold one painting for £15,595.

Talent

The boy’s talents seem miraculous; his father is an electrician and his mother a nutritionist and both are completely non-artistic. The first sign of his talent came when he and his parents were in Cornwall on their first family holiday. While the family admired the bay, the then very young Kieron created a striking drawing with pencils.

Art studio

Kieron started his painting career on the kitchen table, but times have changed and he now has his own studio, which is cluttered with easels, paints, palettes and other painting paraphernalia. He has books full of pencil sketches, but he paints in oils, pastels and watercolors. He is skilled in many mediums. Talking about his paintings, Kieron said: “I like painting stormy skies and I’ve painted lots of marshes, and I like painting windmills.”

I Have Been Searching For Grandpa’s Papers Without Success

Comment

November 9th, 2011

There’s money at the end of this rainbow, I just know it

According to family legend, grandpa was a great traveler. In addition to the legend I have proof of his wanderings by way of postcards and faded black and white photographs. My mother also told me stories of how grandpa, who was very rich, would buy things on the spur of the moment. “If he walked past a building and he liked the architecture or the entrance, he would go inside, ask for the owner and try and strike a deal to buy it. I distinctly remember a house in Stubbs Road in Hong Kong, a mansion with huge palm trees and a view of the pyramids in Cairo and a stone building in King David Street in Jerusalem.”

The papers?

No, I don’t know where the papers are, said mother when I questioned her. There is no sign of these properties anywhere. So, I search. I have searched the house where he lived, so much so that the present occupiers are sick of me pestering them. “There is nothing here!” they yell. I have been to the bank, looked through numerous files and books under the strict supervision of the manager and his staff. Nothing. Hardly a sign that the old man ever trod the green marble floor. I spoke to his caregiver who tended him in the last few months. She shakes her head and asks if I know anyone who needs a caregiver. Why am I doing all this? Easy, it’s in the interest of raising some money so I can get rid of my boss.

Background

Here’s my reasoning. I pick up the paper and see this article: Three residential sites were auctioned by the Hong Kong government at a value well over the predicted rates, reinforcing the belief that the curbs on property have not had any negative impact on demand and there may have been some expansion of the economy in the first quarter of this year after all.

The Winner

The highlight of the auction was a site on Stubbs Road which was bought by Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited for $578 million. The original estimate for this sale was put at about $565 million. There has been a move by the government to put a damper on the real estate prices. But the Stubbs Road sale indicates that this is not seriously impacting the demand for luxury apartments even as prime real estate is getting scarcer by the day in Hong Kong.

Dealers

According to a property analyst, Eva Lee, Hong Kong’s economy may have expanded by over 5% in the first quarter of 2011. Real estate dealers are still confident of selling properties at prices above the current rates within a space of two years. Housing in Hong Kong is considered to be the most expensive according to a survey by Savills Plc. Home sales however, have reached the lowest over a period of two years.

Wouldn’t you search?
