AceShowbiz - Recently purchased seven paintings by pop cartoonist Todd Goldman as an early birthday present for herself, Rihanna has revealed her secret addiction to art. The "Umbrella" hit-maker admitted that she got addicted to art collecting after purchasing a Bob Marley painting by The Rolling Stones star Ron Wood.
"I'm not a big spender, but I do like to buy art. My favorite canvas is a Ronnie Wood one. He painted a portrait of Bob Marley and as soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it," Rihanna revealed. "It's very rare that you get a painting of a legend painted by a legend, so I had to get it."
Rihanna was reported to have bought seven paintings by pop cartoonist Todd Goldman, including the "Fat Kids Are Harder To Kidnap", "Goodbye Kitty in a Microwave," "Gold Digger Like a Hooker Just Smarter," "My Mom Says Not to Run Scissors," "Barbie is a Slut," "A Salt with a Deadly Weapon," and "Smurf Blue Balls," as an early birthday present for herself.
"Half of the paintings are going to her house in L.A. and half to her apartment in NYC," an unnamed source said.
