name a single contemporary American painter other than fucking Banksy

Banksy is British, so... it's still 0?

also dead, the Dollop did an ep on this guy and the details of his last few years are wild. all I remember is him being blackout drunk in Italy with some woman he terrorized

The Dollop Podcast Ep 77- Christian Artist Thomas Kinkade

Kinkade was such a piece of shit. Always scamming people out of money, using NDAs like WMDs, drinking, shouting, etc. But at least he named all three of his sons "Christian" to show his faith!

Children: Merritt Kinkade, Winsor Kinkade, Chandler Kinkade, Everett Kinkade

are you sure? I'm seeing four sons named after artists

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Their middle names are all "Christian."

Edit: also didn't realize he had a fourth son, who of course got the same middle name as his brothers lmao

Very silly mistake on my part, but others pointed out a couple of other celebrity painters (who are really just famous people who also happen to paint), so we can substitute them.
