He Wows the Art World Mikail Akar was born in Germany on October 9th, 2012. For his fourth birthday, he got a canvas and some paints. He liked them very much. A few days later, his father came home from work and found a painting on the table. It was really good. He thought it was his wife’s doing and he told her it was beautiful. But she said it was not hers. It was Mikail’s. Then Mikail’s parents realized for the first time that their son might be a born painter. That was four years ago. Since then, Mikail has developed his own style. People from around the world buy his work. They are all very surprised when they find how young the artist is. He is called the “pre-school Picasso”.
