Madonna shares son Rocco's artwork as she gushes that she's 'so proud'

Madonna was beaming with pride as she showed off some of her son Rocco's artwork.

The Frozen singer shares 21-year-old Rocco Ritchie with movie producer Guy Ritchie.

She took to her Instagram page to share his talents with her 17.7 million followers.

Madonna captioned the post: "Anyone who knows me knows my passion for painting and ART—so you can imagine how proud I am to share some of my Son Rocco’s paintings with you!! He goes by the name RHED!"

One picture had her posing in front of one of his many paintings.

The other three pictures were of Rocco's standalone work which had him painting random portraits of people.

One of them was of one of Madonna's children, David Banda, 16.

She also shared a short compilation video of Rocco painting in his studio. Fans got to see short glimpses into his artistic process.

Fans and followers were impressed with the young artist's work and complimented him in the comment section.

"They are really great !!" one user said along with a few heart emojis.

Another added: "Wishing him plenty of success!" while one posted: "You have got to be kidding. Those are spectacular! Amazing!"

"Those paintings are works of art; just like you," one said while another fan commented: "Love the painting of David."

Rocco has been studying fine art in London and was only uncovered as the brains behind an artist named Rhed late last year.

He has exhibited his work around the world and is selling paintings for huge amounts of money.

However, the child of two of the world’s most well-known people wanted to avoid the limelight himself and initially released his work under a fake name.

PageSix had revealed that Rocco was selling his art via the London-based gallery Tanya Baxter Contemporary.

The Tanya Baxter website describes Roccos’ work, saying: “Rhed is a young emerging artist whose cultural background is diverse and unconventional.

“His childhood was spent between New York and London which have given him an eclectic and diverse artistic background. He has embraced a new genre of bricolage art with expressionist style and street energy.

“It is no surprise that he first dabbled as a graffiti artist.”
