A nine-year-old art genius nicknamed 'Mini Monet' is about to become a millionaire after selling his latest collection of 24 paintings for 250,000 pounds, the Daily Mail reported.

　　Kieron Williamson, from Norfolk, had his landscape pictures snapped up by telephone and internet buyers from around the world in just 15 minutes during a recent sale.

　　The youngster only started painting during a family trip to Devon and Cornwall in 2008 - before then he had just colored in dinosaurs his parents had drawn for him.

　　The talented schoolboy will not be given free access to his rapidly growing wealth until he reaches 18, as his parents have been investing it on his behalf.

　　一个9岁的绘画天才新近卖出了24幅作品，价值25万英镑。这个小男孩的昵称叫“小莫奈”，自此将成为一名百万富翁。

　　据英国《每日邮报》报道，小画家名为克尔隆?威廉森，来自于诺福克。近日，威廉森的风景画遭疯抢，仅15分钟就被世界各地的买家通过电话和网络抢购一空。

　　其实，小男孩是从2008年与家人到丹佛和康沃尔游玩时才开始画画的，在那之前都是等父母画好了恐龙，他来上色。

　　尽管这位有天赋的小男生财富迅速增长，但在18岁之前他是不能自由支配那些钱的。不过，他的父母用这些钱正在帮他搞投资。
