Yes and apparently it's one of the signs of high functioning autism. I started painting recently and now I'm breaking down even people's faces to shades, layers and highlights.

Oh well. It's fun.

Isn’t that just normal artist behavior? Musicians hear tones in things like air conditioner vents, and rhythms in their laundry dryers. That doesn’t seem like it implies autism?
