A three-year-old boy dubbed as ‘little Picasso’ has cost his parents $3,000 after he painted his curtains, carpet and bed sheets while his parents hosted a dinner party.

Andrea and Paul Tudorovic from Ballarat, west of Melbourne were left shocked after finding their son, Archie giving his room a complete makeover after they left him alone for just 10 minutes.

The boy, dubbed as ‘little Picasso’, has�splashed blues, greens and pinks using his walls and cupboards as a canvas — leaving his parents with a $3,000 clean-up bill.

As his parents were stunned when they found the ‘artwork’, Ms Tudorovic told Daily Mail Australia they were able to see the ‘brighter’ side of the creative mess.

“I had people over for my birthday and when we saw the door closed when knew he was up to something.

“He did a good job of it… paint was all over the door, carpet, walls, doona and himself,” she said.

Ms Tudorovic said her creative son climbed up a laundry cupboard to find the paint, before taking it back into his room.

After claiming for the damage, the couple’s insurance company has agreed to pay for the cost of new carpets.
