We’ve all suffered through them: pop stars and celebrities picking up a paintbrush and foisting upon us artworks that feel like PR stunts in disguise. Robbie Williams, James Franco, Joel Lyucett, it's like a conveyor belt of art crimes you can't escape from. Then there’s Ringo Starr, the Beatle, the drummer, the eternal peace-and-love ambassador. His first-ever exhibition of original canvas paintings proves celebrity art can actually be, well… good. Or at least, meaningful and joyful.
STARR ART, opening this September at Las Vegas’ Animazing Gallery, is all colour, chaos, and unpredictable joy. Ringo’s Spin Art series, big, swirling canvases inspired by children creating patterns with centrifugal motion, feels alive and just a little chaotic. It’s a reminder that picking up the best art supplies for painting isn’t solely about technique; it’s about having fun and being playful with paint.
