R&B singer Chris Brownhas opened up about his love for art. He’s inspired by paintings and even named his most recent album Graffiti.

Brown told Mechanical Dummy: “I fell in love with art around the age of six. I always took pride in kind of winning the colouring contests in school. Art was my only outlet.

"Aside from music, art is the thing that I like to escape and I appreciate other artists who have that talent and that eye for detail and eye for their own imagination. Art is a part of my life and it influences me completely.”
