Sylvester Stallone Wants to Start Painting Again: 'It's Similar to Writing a Short Screenplay'

The Rocky star shared some of his works to Instagram, announcing that he's ready to get back into the craft

Sylvester Stallone is picturing his future in painting once again.

The First Blood star, 76, revealed on Instagram Saturday that he's ready to pick up the brush once more and that it's "about time to start painting again."

"What is wonderful about painting, it's similar to writing a short screenplay, but instead of words, you use strokes and colors to tell your story," Stallone shared with his followers.

Stallone shared his update with fans alongside a few of his works, all of which are relatively abstract, and a couple of which feature painted versions of himself and his characters.

It's been some time since the Tulsa King star updated followers on his additional artistic endeavors on Instagram. His most recent IG post including his art was shared back in November of 2021, when he uploaded an image of a rendition he made of the Rocky poster. At the time, he wrote, "the Rocky poster painting is just me having fun."

Before that, in June 2020, he shared an image of his work "When Love Hurts" to Instagram, writing "This painting represents the tumultuous sea of emotions one must navigate to find lasting love."
