Art by Prince Prince was an incredibly talented artist. His skills went beyond music. Even his handwriting was incredible. So, with talk over the contents in the Vault, I haven’t heard anyone mention artwork that it might contain. So, what I’d like for this thread to showcase artwork done by Prince. Let me start by posting the most well-known painting of his... the album cover to “1999”.  Can you help us build this archive? (Please don’t post art OF Prince by fans, just art BY Prince.) | |

I was wondering that too. Did he have notebooks and sketch pads? I'll say this though- I bought a book of Jim Morrison writings and really enjoyed them so when I saw the Kurt Cobain Journals on clearance I decided to pick it up. One of the first pages says "if you read this you'll judge" and I was like no I won't ... A few pages in however, I thought why did someone publish this and instantly felt guilty for buying it because yeah I was like whoa dude... So I don't know- I guess I agree some stuff is best kept vaulted. As a writer myself, I hope I have time to burn some shit before I die. Surprise, surprise.
Another treat. Another trick. | |

Grits and gravy, cheese eggs and jam...

I like the sketches of clothes designs he did too. I've always hoped to see more if his artwork. "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day. That's why I don't say anything back, because there's so much that's wrong" - P, Dec '15 | |

Handwritten lyrics with art are OK, too.  | |
