THE ART AND MAGIC : A 5-Year-Old Girl With Autism Creates Remarkable Paintings

Grace has autism, a disorder that affects how a person make sense of the world around them.

The condition impairs a person’s social interaction and how they relate to and communicate with others.

Grace, who was diagnosed with the condition in 2011, started painting as a way to help with her speech therapy.

Arabella said she wanted to share her daughter’s artwork to raise awareness of her condition, which currently affects around 100,000 children in the UK, “and these numbers are rising”

She added: “When you are a parent or a teacher of a child with autism and you are trying to interact with them you are constantly looking for ways to find that key that will allow you into their world.”
