In fifth grade, while many of us were running around on playgrounds, Tyler Gordon of San Jose had just discovered his endless supply of painting talent.
Tyler, who turns 12 Sunday, paints black, white and gray portraits of celebrities he finds on television, or of people who want a portrait of themselves. He has painted Kevin Durant, Jay-Z, Beyonce, the Beatles, Oprah and many more famous people.
