He is literally a child prodigy! Ace-Liam Ankrah of Ghana has set a remarkable world record with his painting achievements - and he isn’t even two years old.
Last week, the Guinness Book of World Records officially named little Ace-Liam the world’s youngest male artist, a title that has garnered global attention and admiration. Take a look at some of his work:
Here's how it all started:
Ace-Liam’s artistic journey began by accident. His mother, Chantelle Kukua Eghan, a 25-year-old artist and founder of Arts and Cocktails Studio in Accra, Ghana, recalls the moment vividly...
“I was looking for a way to keep my boy busy while working on my own paintings. I spread out a canvas on the floor and added paint to it, and then in the process of crawling, he ended up spreading all the colours on the canvas.”
This playful interaction with acrylic paints at just six months old marked the beginning of Ace-Liam’s artistic journey.
