I discovered this guy tonight, http://www.outsiderart.co.uk/jiani.htm His name is Eric Jiani. He's diagnosed with AS, and has a very unique, almost dreamlike theme to his work. Being part British and part Brazilian, you can see this in his work, as he spent time in both Brazil and the UK. Simlar to Bocsh in some ways.

Another one of my favorites is Stephen Wiltshire http://www.stephenwiltshire.co.uk/. That guy is simply awe inspiring. He has the photographic memory trait a lot of people with HFA have, he can paint these cityscapes after just one helicopter ride across the given city.

I also found a guy called David Downes, who's work is also very stylised http://www.daviddownes.co.uk/

If anyone has any others, or wants to share their art, I'd love to see :) I sadly have yet to invest in a scanner, so I can't show you any of mine (yet).

I can't do art, personally but I gather there are some artists here, although I'm not qualified to say how good their work is. :lol:

Here's a link to my dad's website. He isn't an Aspie, but I'm 99.9% sure he has ADHD.

This is incredible realitysandwich. Do you do customized work? I have a book coming out and am looking for someone to design the cover. I also plan on releasing a musical compilation for people with AS and am looking for an album artist.

The collection of talent already on this thread is so inspiring!

Realitysandwich - I think I'll spend a couple of contemplative hours on your site...pure genius - mindblowing indeed!

Bhetti - love your linework and colour combinations!

There's a great interview with Millie on here which I found most inspiring - http://www.wrongplanet.net/postx90399-135-0.html

I don't have my own site anymore (need to build a new one) but a link to my work can be found in my profile.

Thanks for starting this thread Miserylovescompany :)

I had no idea Paul Laffoley was autistic. He designed the cover of a book I'm in.

Has an amazing art gallery in NYC too.
