In reply to the discussion: Hunter Biden's Artwork [View all]Budi
(15,325 posts)44. Hunter Biden is not 'grifting' off his dad's legacy.
This art is his.
He's not marketing anything but his own talent.
Hunter Biden isn't in the same catagory as the 'other's.
He isn't selling his Name.
This is his own work.
And it is some intriguing appreciable art, regardless of his name.
This is his own talent, not some promo piece manufactured somewhere else that he simply slaps his Name on, nor penned by some journo seeking to make a buck off his Name.
This is his work only.
No one knew nor gave a shit who Hunter Biden was until Media, running oppo against his dad during a high stakes campaign, needed to create slander the likes of Tara Reade!!!, to muddy up an image.
C'mon now, We all know how that goes down, right?
Money & Media, baby!!

I don't think the water colors are so great, but see promise in the graphic designs.

Art is always personal & subjective, reflecting the eye of the artist as well as the viewer.

What I was referring to in the comparison is that like Megan he is cashing in on his fathers name

Agree with the last sentence. Can't deny H Biden an opportunity, but it just doesn't look good.

Yes, I'm sure anyone could have produced these painting with no name recognition and sold for 500K.
