Charles, Prince of Wales

The Prince, who has been painting watercolors for many years, never sells originals of his works, focusing only on the landscapes of his country.

All income from the sale is donated to charities supported by the crown prince.

Lucy Liu

Known for films such as Charlie’s Angels and Kill Bill, the actress has been painting with the signature of Yu Ling for many years. The artist, who uses found objects in her highly acclaimed paintings, works as a visual assistant in films and as an assistant in animations. Her works, which also have references to traditional Far Eastern art, are exhibited in galleries.

David Bowie

He studied art and design before becoming a glam rock star, and his student works were exhibited in London and Basel in 1995.

Another little-known feature of Bob Dylan, the poet and songwriter who also won the Nobel Prize, is that he is a painter. His lithographs, composed of works influenced by Matisse, have been in collections since 1994. The critics believe that his large-sized canvases in the “The Beaten Path” exhibition opened at the Halcyon Gallery in London evoke folk music.
