As an autistic(自闭的)teen, Niam Jain doesn't speak much. But ever since the 13?year?old picked up a paintbrush last summer, he's found a way to express himself, and the art world is listening. Niam, who lives in Toronto, was diagnosed(诊断)with autism at the age of two. Niam is in special education class and loves school. Last summer Nina Jain bought her son some art supplies to give him something to do.

She never thought it would lead to a passion(酷爱)and a career, but soon after she posted Niam's first paintings online, a lot of people started buying them.Some were from family and friends. But most came from sharp?eyed collectors.

Niam has already sold 46 paintings across Canada and the US. He's made nearly $20, 000, and the number keeps growing.

“I don't know how he can do this because this is the work of a kind of successful mid?career painter, ” says a gallery owner after he pointed out Niam's mastery(精通)of the technique of mixing and layering(分层堆积)colours.

“Since he has paintings and he loves to do what he does, he has a reason to get up in the morning and that's really, really important, ” Nina says.

Morning and night, Niam can be found in his studio, sometimes painting for hours at a time, on more than one canvas at a time.

For this artist, there's no way of knowing what his next creation will be or what will encourage him next. The future is a canvas for his imagination.

Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand what he wants to teach them, and what he wants them to learn from him.

What visual(视觉的)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain,

because painters translate their experience into shapes and colours, not words. They seem to feel that a

certain selection of shapes and colours, out of countless billions of, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular Shapes and colours. or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.

Most artists take their shapes and colours from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and at rest; their choices indicate(指示)that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary(当代的)artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.

If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(腐烂)leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something-all of which means that, consciously(有意识地)or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.
