Hollywood action man Sylvester Stallone has made a splash in the art world – one of his paintings has just sold for $50,000. The Rambo star, 63, has been a part-time painter for 30 years and his hobby is fast turning into a profitable venture.

A collection of Stallone’s paintings recently went on display at an art gallery in Miami, Florida and one abstract piece caught the eye of Las Vegas casino magnate Steve Wynn, who handed over $40,000 for the painting on Wednesday.

A self-portrait of Stallone from the 1970s was snapped up by an art gallery boss for $50,000.

He’s not the only star who has tasted success as an artist – The Rolling Stones star Ron Wood, singers Tony Bennett and Paul McCartney, Viggo Mortensen and actress Jane Seymour have all been acclaimed for their brushstrokes.
