I was two years old. My mum started teaching my sister, who is older than me, and I listened in. By the time I was five years old, I was more advanced than my mum. By the time I was in preschool, I wasn’t good at reading or writing, but I could draw like a teenager.
What are your favourite things to draw?
My followers. I never tell them in advance and they are always excited. I also like drawing Disney characters. I draw a few celebs. I also do drawings with a message, such as an anti-bullying picture.
What is your favourite drawing?
My anti-bullying drawing. It got a huge response everywhere I posted it. I got a couple of hundred fan mail letters full of people’s stories about bullying.
What will you be when you grow up?
I’m undecided. Uni has been postponed because of the publicity I’m getting. I want to take commissions and sell my art. Art universities can change your style. I don’t want to change; I like the way I draw. I also want to be on the Ellen show one day.
Have you had a response from a celeb you drew?
I drew Cody Simpson’s sister and she showed her mum who wanted the drawing and gave her LA address. She asked me to draw Cody, too.
Is fame overwhelming?
It can be. At the moment I have 10,000 unread messages. They are all so sweet and say how much they love my drawings. People can be impatient – I usually post a drawing a day and if I don’t they ask where the drawings are.
How long does it take you to do one drawing?
About two hours to draw and half an hour to finish it on a computer. I am not a patient artist.
