Wake Up Call

You Think You're An Artist? In Your Dreams, Buddy!

Imagine if you could draw like Michelangelo, but only sometimes. A man who sleepwalks is a talented artist when he's asleep - but he can't draw at all when he's awake. Lee Hadwin, 33, of Henllan, North Wales, can't remember drawing, and can't even recreate his sketches when he wakes up. He scribbles on anything - even walls and tables. He said: "I've been filmed to prove it's true. I've tried to do the pictures when I'm awake but they are rubbish." The Edinburgh Sleep Clinic said he was "unique".

FOOTNOTE: I've got more details, but they're a bit sketchy.
