7-Year-Old Boy's Art Fetches $300,000+

At seven years old, Kieron Williamson has become one of the most celebrated artists of his time. Read that again: Kieron Williamson is only seven years old and his paintings are among the most collected by current collectors and aficionados. His latest showing brought the youngster about $300,000 in half an hour!

Kieron started drawing on a visit to Cornwall two years ago, saying he was inspired by the boats. He frequently paints landscapes and cityscapes, saying, "It's important... to pack in as [many] details as you can when sketching."
