Imagine spending hours upon hours creating a masterpiece, only for it to be destroyed within seconds by a mischievous child. That’s what happened to a 26-year-old successful artist when her sister’s 9-year-old son decided to have some fun at her expense. The artist had a strict ‘no kids allowed’ policy for her New Year’s celebration, but her sister, Lucy, couldn’t find a babysitter for her son, Ethan. Despite setting up a gaming console to keep him entertained, disaster struck when Ethan snuck into the off-limits art studio and ruined a painting worth thousands.
