Akiane Kramarik (born July 9, 1994) is an American artistic prodigy and poet.

Akiane Kramarik was born in Mount Morris, Illinois to a Lithuanian atheist mother and an American father. She is of Polish, Hungarian, Slovakian, Russian, Bohemian, Chinese, French, Danish, Jewish and German heritage.[1]

Primarily a self-taught painter, Akiane Kramarik started drawing at age four, painting at six, and writing poetry at seven.

Her first completed self-portrait sold for ten thousand US dollars.[2]

Her art is inspired by her visions of heaven and [in her view] her personal connection with God.

Akiane's mother did not initially believe in God, but has since become a Christian.

Kramarik's art also depicts wildlife, landscape, and people.

By age 10 she appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show[3] and CNN.[4]
