Another 'Prodigy'

Meet Aelita Andre, at four years old the youngest professional artist in the world, with the possible exception of those piglet pollocks Trotters Independent Painters (CLICK). Aelita has been exhibiting and selling her abstract expressionist doodah since she was two. She's just opened her latest exhibition at the Agora Gallery, Manhattan, New York, and already daft punters are snapping up her works for £6,000 ($9,900) each! Her parents, Michael Andre and Nikka Kalashnikova, are both artists. My guess is they decided to exploit the market for art by child prodigies. Give the kid lorryloads of paint and see what she comes up with. Bingo! Abstract expressionism. Fame and fortune are theirs, through their kid. Click the title link for a video of Aelita at work. Groan! I'll stick with the Trotters. Their money goes to charity.
