Evan is a very creative and artistic 17 year-old boy. Evan was diagnosed with Autism at age four. His interest in drawing started as a toddler with sidewalk chalk. One of Evan's first drawings was two stick people with "ddy" and "mmy" written underneath. At age three Evan was spelling phonetically and had drawn his interpretation of "Daddy" and "Mommy." He drew letters and numbers years before he could speak. Evan began speaking simple words at age six. Evan has a significant language deficit and we are continually working to improve his verbal skills and spontaneous conversational ability. Evan can read and has a wide vocabulary. He may only speak two or three word sentences, but his language is always appropriate to the situation. Evan has a fun personality and a great sense of humor. Drawing helps him express his emotions and moods, and his humor is definitely present in his art.
Evan's passion is drawing and he prefers simple markers on copy paper. He refers to his art as "pages" and is very protective of them. Through high school art classes Evan has tried other mediums, but he
