About “Davisville Village” Resident, Richard Malik:
Richard was born in Burlington Ontario in October of 1973. Shortly after turning four years old Richard received a diagnosis of autism. During his early years Richard was the recipient of enriched programming from many different sources. These interventions greatly enhanced the development of both his verbal communicatioin and social skills.
Initially Richard took instruction in art with a group under the tutelage of Isabel Page. Later he took private lessons with her. For several years before Christmas with Isabel’s guidance Richard would produce many personal hand-painted cards which he delighted in sending to family and friends.
Richard’s new original paintings, new greeting cards and seasonal cards can be viewed and ordered at
