Kieron Williamson, Norfolk child artist, paints amazing watercolour pictures and has stunned art critics.

His paintings cost start from £900 and up and people are on a waiting list to buy them. His second exhibition, which was held in a gallery in his home town of Holt, sold out in 14 minutes.

Kieron’s specialty is landscapes. The gifted artist has taken the art scene by storm with his watercolours of Norfolk beauty spots.

He lives with his dad Keith, a former electrician, his mom, who is training to be a nutritionist, and Billie-Jo, his little sister. He had lessons with other Norfolk-based painters including Carol Ann Pennington, Brian Ryder and his favorite, Tony Garner.

“He doesn’t say very much, he doesn’t ask very much, he just looks. He’s a very visual learner. If I did a picture with most students, they will copy it but Kieron is different. He will copy it and then he will Kieronise it,” said Garner.

“It might be a bit naive at the moment but there’s a lovely freshness about what he does. The confidence that this little chap has got – he just doesn’t see any danger,” the professional artist added.

    A fantastic and deft young person. I hope he doesn’t put off a lot of the older folk who are trying to manipulate the mediums, when their working lives get to the other end of their time.
    Cheers,
    Bill.
