Her work is already commanding top dollar, with a Hong Kong collector last year paying $24,000 for one of her pieces. Now her colourful paintings are on display at the Agora Gallery in Manhattan.
Gallery director Angela di Bello says Aelita, who produced her first meaningful body of work before turning two, is a talented artist. "What's interesting about her work is that I also I find that it is abstract expressionism, but that she's also surrealist in the way she includes objects in her works and how she includes those objects," she said.

"She is completely and utterly innocent, just with an innocent eye almost coming to a canvas," said her father Michael. Andre's solo exhibition, aptly named The Prodigy Of Colour, runs until June 25.

And no one would say the king was naked.
I think people search to see something extraordinary. The need it to feel they have something special. I wish the little well but her work appears like most children paintings I see.
If my parents could afford me some canvas and oil and all the tools I too could make something like this. me and most everyone that reaches the adult life working in any area of Art.
that to say that these paintings are as normal as my mac and cheese.
