10-year-old Filipino painter with autism rises in the NFT space

September 28, 2022

Sevi Agregado is a painter and an NFT artist from the Philippines, who found a love of art at the age of 5. He was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2. Sevi started art just as an activity aside from education and later on liked it and was great at it. Since then, he has been using art therapy to help with autism.

His mother April has started selling Sevi’s paintings as NFTs to help support his therapy. They started when they learned that digital artist Beeple’s NFT artwork sold for $69 million dollars. He posts all his art and NFTs on his page Sevi Loves Art.
