Chris Baker is a teenager - who for 14 years - barely spoke to anyone.

But he took to canvas, and found an incredible talent for art.

It's so impressive he now has his own exhibition in the Wales Millennium Centre.

Carl Edwards went to meet him, and because of the nature of his condition, Chris' family told us his story.

Since April last year, Chris has officially become self-employed, attending craft fairs with the support of his family.

Last November he held a stall displaying his work at the Cardiff Comic Con in the Motorpoint Arena.

You are brilliant!!! I'd love to buy your work and collect it.
My name is Nicholas. I too have Aspergers and was only diagnosed when I was 38, things have been very hard for me, but I am classed as a successful entrepreneur and have used my abilities like you have in art.

If you ever need a sponsor you come to me ok

Keep the great work up
