It’s hard to believe that some of the most talented folks on the planet can also be good at painting or drawing. Why do they get all the talent? Channeling their creativity into visual art is like therapy for some celebrities while others like Lucy Liu are celebrated, serious artists with an astounding portfolio of work.

We decided to round up all of the celebrity artists out there that you might not be aware of. We’re talking big names that you’d likely never guess have a special talent or side hustle. We’ve done our very best to share with you the picture of the celebrity with a work of art they created but in some cases, we had to share their artwork with you in an additional photo.

Did you know that Heidi Klum is an artist? She draws inspiration from the beauty of our natural world. In the above image, we believe she’s painting a portrait of her husband, Tom Kaulitz. You might recognize him as the guitarist for the band Tokio Hotel. Just a whole lot of artistry going on between this pair!

Seth Rogen

Multi-hyphenate Seth Rogen picked up a new hobby while in quarantine. He has become quite the skilled potter in recent years. Many of his pots and objects contain vibrant colors that really pop and put off a good, playful vibe. It’s only fitting that Rogen’s art reflects his own personality and charm.

“I made these vases,” Rogan captioned the above image. See how fun these pots are? In addition to objects for the home, Rogen has also created cannabis products for his company Houseplant. Think of cool lighters, ashtrays, rolling trays, and more. They all have this sort of signature style and were so in demand when they first launched that the website for Houseplant crashed due to the traffic.

Britney Spears

Britney Spears is not taking her artwork too seriously. “Sometimes you just gotta play,” she captioned a video of herself painting on Instagram. She favors bright colors and bold lines. There’s something childlike about the way she paints and treats her canvas. We in no way mean that as an insult! We wish we were that free!

She has also called her painting “therapeutic.” It might be therapy for Spears but it’s a legit side-hustle for her. According to People, Robin Leach picked up one of her paintings at auction for $10,000. Not bad!

Brandon Boyd

Incubus frontman, Brandon Boyd, has been stepping onto a different stage: showing his work alongside 115 independent and emerging artists at The Other Art Fair, which kicked off virtually on March 30 and will take place in person in late June. You can tell that he draws inspiration from Pop Artists and many of his works are truly moving.

Here’s some of Boyd’s artwork. We love all of the texture he has added to the paintings. It’s also great that he’s so open about sharing his artwork with the world. Some celebrity artists are reluctant to share their own work and there are probably scores of celebrities who are secret artists.

Gene Simmons

KISS bassist and singer, Gene Simmons, is another celebrity who took up painting due to the pandemic. He said that he decided to start to keep his mind occupied. Now, his work is hanging in a proper gallery. He is featured in a Las Vegas art gallery inside the Venetian, according to People. That’s not a bad run at all!

Prince Charles

Prince Charles is more than just an heir to the throne. In fact, he does more than just his monarch duties. Including painting watercolor landscapes that have made him one of the best-selling, living UK artists of his generation. In 2016, he reportedly earned nearly $3 million from prints of his watercolor landscapes, all of which went to his Prince of Wales’s Charitable Foundation.

Above is a cover to a collection of Prince Charles’ watercolors that was published in 1991. HRH The Prince of Wales: Watercolours, the collection of 70 watercolors is named. We think that it’s excellent that the Prince of Wales uses his art to fund charitable donations. This is an artist with a great cause!

Gigi Hadid

Gigi Hadid is yet another supermodel who is also an artist. She usually mixes fashion and art to tell her special story. We suppose getting to wear some of the world’s most beautiful and exclusive garments really inspires some models to hone their artistic talents.

In 2019, Hadid created this tribute to the late Karl Lagerfeld for an exhibition about the designer.

“Creating [this] while channeling our beloved Karl for this project was an honor and joy, and I had so much fun seeing everyone’s take on the shirt last week,” Hadid shared at the time. “He would have loved being remembered this way.”


“For those of you who have asked or are interested, the concept of my shirt is inspired by polaroids I took of Karl. The back is a painted and stitched version of an image I shot of him in Paris, and on the front, I attached a Polaroid of Karl’s suit and accessories that I shot in Milan, both in 2017,” she continued.

“I always loved the details in Karl’s outfits and studied them whenever I could. He sometimes wore suits with staples on the collar and shoulders, so I added staples to the collar and to fasten the short sleeves of the shirt. I will be forever grateful for the times he let me shoot him. He was supportive of my creative side which gave me so much confidence. It felt natural to incorporate that into the shirt. Made with Love ❤️xG,” she concluded.

Jemima Kirke

You might recognize actor Jemima Kirke from her work on Girls and Sex Education. But, before she set her sights on acting, she attended the prestigious design school, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting in 2008.

She’s mounted many exhibitions in New York City and is regarded as a respected professional artist. She shared the above image of one of her paintings, entitled THREE GIRLS in 2020.

“A few years ago they moved from Israel to New York City,” Kirke captioned the image. “They spoke no English and went straight into an English-speaking school. Now they speak as if it were their first language. They also seem to be quite popular.”

“It reminds me of my own move from the UK when I was ten years old,” she continued. “Minus the popularity. The little one stayed at my house once for a sleepover and ate so much candy she got a stomach ache and couldn’t sleep. We stayed up together and I showed her the movie Grease. She called her mother and asked if she could come home. Her mother encouraged her to stay and get through it, saying she’d be glad she did in the morning. Then I understood that these children were learning lessons in resilience.”

Miley Cyrus

Actor, singer, tv personality, and celebrity are a few of the words to describe Miley Cyrus who seems to be talented at any manner of thing. Did you know that she’s also an artist? Cyrus went through a phase where she was creating remarkable 3D sculptures. She was so proud of them that they ended up displayed for New York Fashion Week and later, Art Basel in Miami.

In the above image, you’ll see one of the artist’s sculptures. Does it not look colorful and otherworldly? This was on display for Art Basel. The Hannah Montana star did an interview with W magazine following her show in New York. “I’d love to come to New York again and be able to show my art in an actual gallery,” she told W. “That’s something I’d never done before, so I’d love to do it again.”

We’re here for it!

Halsey

Halsey creates more than just your favorite pop songs. The musician also doubles as a visual artist. On her “off day” you might find her dabbling in some watercolor paintings. She has shared her takes on popular characters from animated movies before.

The above example was painted by Halsey and it features some characters from Spirited Away. We think the musicianship has a pretty good grasp of the watercolor medium. Don’t you?

Pierce Brosnan

Did you know that before he made it big as an actor Pierce Brosnan was a professional graphic designer? Yes, the 007 alum has always fostered his artistic side. Despite being almost solely an actor he never lets his art get too far away from him. He once shared of his process “I always set up a studio when I go on location.” He also uses the funds he makes from the sale of his prints for charity.

Lucy Liu

We’ve already talked a little about Lucy Liu but she’s had a parallel fine art career that not enough people know about. She studied painting and photography at the New York studio school. She works in a variety of media including collage. Her work has been seen in a variety of galleries and mounted her first solo exhibition in 2020 at the Napa Valley Museum. She sometimes uses her Chinese name, Yu Ling, professionally for her visual art projects.

Christie Brinkley

Many people don’t know that Christie Brinkley was studying to be an artist in Paris when she was discovered. In 1973, American photographer Errol Sawyer spotted Brinkley in a post office in Paris and introduced himself. It would trigger events that would result in three national ad campaigns all from that chance meeting. It launched her modeling career but Brinkley never lost interest in her first of love of art.

Brinkley paints often from her home in Sag Harbor. She is all about that beach life so many of her pieces have shell elements or other objects attached to them. She is a big fan of portraits and you will find many of her originals lining the walls of her Long Island home.

Chris Brown

Sylvester Stallone

You’ll find that boxing is a reoccurring theme in the art of actor Sylvester Stallone. That should come as no surprise because he famously played a boxer in Rocky.

“Stallone is an accomplished artist, completing paintings on canvas as well as sculpture work,” his artist bio reads. “He has had impressive exhibitions at Art Basil, The Russian State Museum, and most recently at the Nice Museum of Contemporary Art in France.”

In addition to the boxing subject matter, other common features of Stallone’s artwork include bright, highly-saturated colors. That gives his pieces tons of energy and his brushwork plenty of movement for even more visual interest.

Jim Carrey

Jim Carrey is not just a funny man and solid creative in show business. He also produces a good deal of art. Most of the pieces are political in nature and offer a blunt assessment of a certain topic. As with Stallone, you’ll find Carrey’s work to be very expressive and vibrant.

“Every human being is, at the very least, a masterpiece in need of restoration,” Carrey shared along with the above image of a painting entitled Eva. “May we all be lovingly restored in 2022 and able to see each other in a better light.” That seems like a pretty positive take.

George W. Bush

The former president really leaned into painting after he retired from the White House. He has painted many portraits of world leaders, images of his beloved dogs, and completed a book with portraits of wounded veterans from the wars he oversaw while in power. The book, Portraits of Courage, is a moving collection of paintings all completed by W.

On July 4, Bush shared this image of the American flag that he’d painted for the occasion. “Let freedom ring,” he wrote alongside it. As you can see, Bush is not afraid to apply some paint to canvas! Many of his works are highly textured.

Candice Bergen

Want to talk about exclusivity? Candice Bergen might be peddling one of the most sought-after works of art for dog-lovers out there. Only those in her inner circle have gotten Bergen to paint a portrait of their pets on luxury handbags. Yes, this star does pet portraits for friends and family. She uses the profits from the painted bags to give to charity.

Celebrities Who Are Also Artists

How cute is this offbeat pet portrait? Bergen does a great job bringing character and interest to an otherwise drab designer bag. It’s one of the more eccentric ways to create art but fans love the bags so much that she started her own line of prints featuring her designs.

John Mellencamp

Of all of the celebrity artists on this list, one of our favorites in terms of their art is John Mellencamp. The musician was set to attend art school in New York City before he was offered a record deal in the 1970s. He’s got an excellent reputation as a visual artist. Even Architectural Digest profiled him and his artist’s loft in 2019 where he showcased his moving pieces for the magazine.

“I was very heavily influenced by German expressionism,” he shared in the interview. We must agree that there is a delightful level of moodiness and angst in his work but that just makes them even more emotionally accessible for viewers. He shares his works often on his Instagram account and you should take a look if you’re intrigued.

Tony Bennett

Iconic crooner Tony Bennett is an artist when it comes to being expressive in song but he’s been painting for almost the entirety of his singing career. He often uses his birth name, Anthony Benedetto, professionally as an artist. As you might expect, he’s tried a lot of different styles and subject matters through the decades but there’s one thing that you’ll see again and again.

Bennett loves to paint the view from his window overlooking Central Park. Thus, there are a lot of landscapes and nature studies in his catalog.

“Tony is known the world over as a legendary entertainer,” his artist bio reads. “Yet as a child growing up in Astoria, NY, one of his first career ambitions was to be a painter and this passion for art has been as much a part of his life as his love for music and performing.”

Jane Seymour

Jane Seymour has enjoyed a celebrated career as an actor but she has also dabbled in jewelry design, a form of art, but it’s not all she puts her artist’s eye to. She’s become a rather prolific painter and offers her original works for sale on her designer website.

Most of her works are still lifes of flowers and botanicals but she has not boxed herself in when it comes to styles of painting. She also has completed many beautiful landscapes and portraits of herself and others. In addition to painting, Seymour also sculpts pieces. She’s keeping busy!
