Narrator: Stephen Wiltshire was born in London in 1974.
He was diagnosed with autism as a child.
He struggled to speak but he loved to draw.
Wiltshire’s teacher took him and his classmates around London.
He was inspired by the buildings and cars.
When he got back to the classroom, he realised he could draw amazing detail just from memory.
Wiltshire creates his drawings by making small lines with a black pen on a piece of paper.
He slowly builds up the image piece by piece.
This skill has taken Wiltshire all over the world.
One time, after a twenty minute helicopter ride he spent a week drawing Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong all from memory.
Wiltshire’s art has appeared in books, magazines and on TV.
Stephen Wiltshire is an inspiration to people all over the world and lives by his motto
Do the best you can and never stop.
