Little Miss and her mews
自閉小畫家對貓表愛意

Autistic 5-year-old Iris Halmshaw, whose paintings sell for ￡1,500, created a buzz in the art world for her Monet-style at 3 years old, the Daily Mail of London reported. She filled her days with painting in response to being unnerved by other children until a cat called Thula came along, helping the little girl become more tactile and affectionate. The pair are now inseparable – and Iris's parents credit Iris with adding brush strokes which resemble a cat's eyes or nose to express her love for Thula through her painting.(See Photo)
據英國《每日郵報》報道，5歲的艾瑞斯·漢默森患有自閉癥，在3歲時因酷似莫奈的畫風轟動藝術界，作品售價高達1500英鎊。一直以來，艾瑞斯無法與其他孩子交流，都待在自己的繪畫世界里，但小貓咪"圖拉"的到來使她變得更愛觸摸，也更有感情。艾瑞斯與圖拉如今形影不離，艾瑞斯的父母在她的畫中發現了類似貓咪的眼睛和鼻子的痕跡，他們認為艾瑞斯是在通過繪畫向"圖拉"表達愛意。(見圖)
