I know, right? When some people think of Autism, I imagine some would think "Poor kid". But I think that with the right guidance, he can channel that Autism into something positive, like his car collection and displaying his cars. 🙂

This kid is absolutely amazing. I've never seen anything so spectacular because of so many levels of achievement. I don't even know where to start. An iPhone? Are you kidding me? With a creative mind like his and the ability to see through all the technical B.S. this dude will go far. Based on what he has already achieved, there is no end to where his life will take him. His iconic accomplishments will definitely help me with some much needed motivation to be better with my own photography. This is unbelievable.

This is such a beautiful story when I was a job coach I had a Asperger's individual who loves NASCAR statistics and I was able to get him and his mother free tickets to go to Loudoun to see the actual cars if he was obsessed with. I asked him how did he like it he says oh it was very noisy! Which was as good a thank you you could get. 🙂

Eric is a true artist. His tools are models, Earth and the portraiture thereof. His skills are amazing at such a young age and yet I imagine they will only get better with time. I too have built models since I was quite young, started out with space ships and battleships before I moved on to cars. Then like Eric in my shop class at school we were assigned to design n build a model house. Afterwards I brought the house home and one fall day I did just what Eric did, I parked model cars in front of the house andbtook pictures. That was 45 years ago and to this day if someone sees the pics they ask where they were taken because they believe it's a completely real house n place to them, but they can't recall where they saw the house. I tell them out in the backyard. 😁 You keep it up Eric, yours are way better than mine and you've got one really fantastic start!
