THE ART STUDIO — If you've never heard of Tommy Edison, I'm more than pleased to introduce you to this Internet star.
Readers, please meet Tommy Edison. No, he's not an inventor, he's a man who has been blind since birth and captured the love of the Internet as "The Blind Film Critic." But he doesn't stop with movie reviews; he also willingly and shares his experiences with the world through Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and more.
There are many reasons why following him on any or all of these outlets is fascinating, but my personal favorite reason is his infectious and bubbly sense of humor, as you shall see.
In this video, Edison asks his followers to suggest something he can draw. He starts with a cat, moves onto his car, then draws a self portrait for the ages. If you're expecting fine art, you'll be disappointed, but you won't be disappointed in Edison's incontrovertible sense of humor.
If you like this video, also check out Edison's "Guessing the Color of Flavored Jelly Beans" and "The Best Things about Being Blind."

Boy howdy, it's everything you could hope for and more. There's comedy and suspense as well as a true "aww" factor.
