An ultra-luxury Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV that was hand-painted by a 10-year-old art prodigy, Mikail Akar, has sold for a staggering $450,000 to an unnamed multi-millionaire Rolls-Royce customer.
The Cullinan typically retails for the eye-watering price of $350,000, but Mikail’s artistic stamp on the bonnet make the price of this ‘Rolls-Royce Of SUV’ jumped by a staggering $100,000.
Mikail Akar, who hails from Cologne and began his prolific artistic journey at four, was dubbed the ‘pre-school Picasso’ while his abstract art also saw him compared to Jackson Pollock.
His latest work involves putting a custom paint job on the bonnet of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, which he covered in a series of colorful and fun designs as seen in this short clip below.
Speaking with DailyMail.com, he said :
“I enjoy when it finds a new home and glad my art makes people happy.”
However, the Cullinan isn’t the only vehicle given a Midas touch at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in Cologne as he also painted three other classic cars, including a 1967 VW Bully, a 1967 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, and a 1967 Mustang.
After finishing the hand-paint works, the cars were then displayed last month at five star hotel, Althoff Grand hotel Schloss Bensberg which is outside the German city of Cologne.
“Sometimes I know what I’m going to create, and sometimes I don’t,” Mikail said.
“’I love to draw, and I paint what I see in my head.
“I’m overjoyed when people buy my art.”
Though, he now commands between $8,000 and $16,000 for one of his colorful artworks, Mikail still enjoys a typical childhood, playing soccer and music.
