I’ve Known I Wanted To Be An Artist Since I Was 2, Here Is What I‘ve Drawn By Age 16
My name is Dusan Krtolica, I am 16 years old and I live in Serbia. Drawing is my greatest passion, and I find my inspiration in nature. I am mostly fascinated by animals and their great diversity, as well as their amazing ability to adapt to living in many different environments.
I started drawing when I was 2 years old. To this day, I had 6 solo exhibitions and participated in many TV shows where I talked about my work. When I was 13 years old I wrote and illustrated an encyclopedia of the prehistoric world, which has been published in my country. My book has already been translated into English and I am still looking for a new publisher.
There is a huge interest in my work, so I am selling my drawings across the world. What I am most happy about is that all my customers also became my friends.

Load More Replies...I am so, so amazed by your talent and attention to details!
Apparently it didn't put what I actually wrote, but imagine a lot of shocked emojis and a lot of hearts
Load More Replies...WOW! These are amazing! I really wish I was talented like you. I love animals, and your portraits have captured them beautifully! Can't wait to see what your artwork will look like in the future!
Whoah. My anime artwork would look like trash compared to your drawings at age 4!
Dule svaka ti cast! Stvarno mi je drago da vidim nekog toliko talentovanog i to jos Srbije. Stvarno si me odusevio.
Bravo majstore, svaka ti čast. Pokazao si nam svima da se istrajnost, upornost i mnogo strpljenja ipak jednom u zivotu isplati.
And I'm here drawing stickmen 😅😂 Btw your drawings are incredible. Keep up the good work 😉
So talented. I wonder how many black pencil and pens he goes through in a year. or in one painting.
It's amazing how you can draw perfectly, the first time, no mistakes, no erasing and drawing again. And to keep such focus, such passion for so many years is equally remarkable. Do you draw people too?
Wowwww what masterpieces they are truly stunning. You are extremely gifted & talented
Dušane, pamtim tvoje gostovanje u emisiji Čajanka u 5. Toliko sam bila oduševljena da sam podelila link na fb. Isto sam uradila i danas kad sam pronašla članak na boredpanda.com :) Sve čestitke! Bravo!
Hvala na komplimentima. Drago mi je sto sam procitao vas komentar. Hvala jos jednom.

Wow, you are gonna be the most brilliant artist that has ever lived! You are so gifted.
This is absolutely amazing!!! It's neat to see the talent in such younger ages. Honestly, this now makes me want to post some of my works, as I have a realistic style as well!
now this is real drawing. not that xerox s**t from photos of celebrities or that tumblr copy/paste memes about periods and cats garbage. some errors in anatomy and perspective but that will be fixed.
also so strange that he is going to art school but looks so plain. no crazy haircut no piercing :)
Load More Replies...I would by your 4 year old drawing for maybe $125. I can't wait to see what you will be doing in 10 years time, what do you know maybe i'll buy one of your amazing artworks.
Your work is out of this world! You are simply amazing. The details are remarkable. Wow!
I love how you can see the yellowed version of the gentleman on the horse he did at 10 framed in the background of the pic at 13. Great work. The butterfly with the industry on his dissolving right wing is stunning, such a strong message.
Seeing this, I can't even imagine how his drawings will look like at 40...such a big talent....
Wow, kid! Can I have some of your talent? :) It's absolutely crazy how talented you have been, and of course all the hard work you are putting
Wow damn your works are beautiful. I can't even draw a stick figure properly.
Me: I can do better! Me, after trying to draw a smiley face: God damn it that kid is cheating somehow!
Dusane, svaka cast! Nerealno je koliko su ti radovi dobri. Mnogi ni u masti ne mogu da reprodukuju ono sto ti iznosis na papir
Hvala na komplimentima. Drago mi je da vam se svidjaju moji radovi. Puno pozdrava.
Load More Replies...You are beyond gifted! I have been drawing for 43 years now and wish I had a fraction of your gift! Just beautiful!
God has blessed you with an amazing talent! :) Really incredible!
the 4 year old drawings will always be better than my attempts to draw
Simply beautiful. Skill like yours takes dedication but also a *lot* of natural talent. I was always a pretty good sketch artist, but I wouldn't be able to get close to your level with a hundred years of practice.
Good God! I draw ALOT and i could never do something like that in a million years!
If somebody calls this talent... smack them! This is a story of extra long hours of dedication and practice. Way to go boy!
Amazing talent. I love watching the skill and creative style develop through the years in these photos.
Awesome!!! Unparalleled!!! Another data point confirming the theory of reincarnation. You are already an artistic master.
Some people know quite early their path in life (their dharma or Tao), or are very aware of their talents. You area fine example of that. Very skilled work.There is a therory that one has to put in 10,000 hours to master something like music or art. I think you are well on your way to that. it will be interesting to see if your art changes a bit if you go to art college.
I have a friend with a son like you. He started working for Marvel Comics later, Matrix movie story boards , and now he has his own couple comics. Your going to do well
Izuzetan talenat koji još treba usmeriti da bi se razvio u sopstven i prepoznatljiv stil. Ovakvo crtanje , puno detalja govori o veličini njegove mašte i sposobnosti zapažanja detalja i umeća da to pretoči u crtež. sa nestrpljenjem očekujem dalje radove i i izložbe .
Does this scream talented or what??Theres NO way you won't get to be an Artist!:)
This young mans love for art shows through in every stroke he makes! His work is beyond amazing! Bravo young man! Keep it up!
Two questions: How?!?! and What's your favorite animal to draw?
This is truly incredible. Lol my first thought was: I wanna get married to this kid.
Amazing talent Mr. I wish to see more and more creative and outstanding master piece from you.
These are all amazing. I wanted to be an artist since I was little but life happened so I stopped drawing but I am now 31 and trying to make an art wall in my home.
Amazing! You are truly inspiring. As a young kid I also wanted to draw and become an artist( I was never as good as you). But my parents said, as an artist you will starve. I became a doctor instead.
I can't draw but I love admiring it, it's beauty. I appreciate art very much. Keep doing what you do. Those pieces we're incredible .
I went to school with a girl who was an amazing artist. She had a job guarantee from Disney as an animator after she graduated (her dad had connections). This kid's talent absolutely DESTROYS anything she did (although her dragon teapot WAS pretty amazing). You, young man, have an amazing gift. I look forward to seeing more from you!
Fantastic job buddy! You've got a bright future in whatever you're doing cuz you're really good!
These are all amazing. They brought me to tears. I feel as though we are witnessing one of the truly great artists of our time at the beginning of a successful, prolific career. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
My goodness. What a wonderful talent you have. Human beings are so amazing. I am in awe.
Loved the "labours of Hercules" I'm a huge mythology fanatic, so this made my day. So happy that he included the great boar, Cerberus, etc
I'm no art expert or critic but i know what i like and i would happily have any of those on my walls at home, best of luck to the dude, good stuff.
Your work is absolutely stunning! WOW! I will share this article on Facebook.
Holy detail Batman, I love that owl! Excellent work. Keep chasing those dreams :)
You are great at it, I love all the details you add. Have you ever considered getting a graphic tablet? You could scan the lineart and add color easily with the graphic tablet (if you set the lineart layer as multiply the colors will stay under the lines), I bet your art would look amazing with some colors.And you learn very fast, I can't wait to see your art in a couple of years! Keep up the good work!
Awesome. You are inspiring. My son is also very artistic and he is just 6yrs old. Thank you for sharing your story and being an inspiration. I will check out your Facebook page and follow you. Thanks!
What an amazing young man and hopefully he does well with selling his art work. I hope he gets a scholarship into college for his work. Excellent job with such detail.
Your artwork is absolutely stunning! I especially love the butterflies. It is so wonderful to see people pursuing their passions.
Try to start using some correction white on the light spots in eyes, it will really make them pop. Very good for your age, will be interesting to see when you come into your own some more. Just some helpful critiques, they are a little flat, try working some more grey tones in as well as white. Keep up the good work, this is tons better than the garbage they have in galleries!
you need to a copyright marks to your pictures because they can be right clicked and saved to people's computers
