David Cheung always saw things others missed—shadows, patterns, perfect lines. But growing up, he felt like an outsider. Bullied, misunderstood, and constantly trying to fit in, he never quite could.

His dream job in gaming came and went in three short months, leaving him broken. Then came a diagnosis: Autism. It answered questions but crushed his spirit even more.

Then one gray Thursday, everything changed. With nothing to lose, he picked up a pencil—and didn’t stop. The boy who once hid from the world found his voice through art.

Today, David’s work is celebrated across the globe, his eye for detail turning pain into beauty.
