Hunter Biden’s “art” career is about as stable as a house of cards in a wind tunnel now that his dad’s political era is fading into history. The First Son’s abstract splatters – which some might generously call “modern art” – are facing a steep nosedive in value according to the experts [1]. Not that there was much REAL “value” to speak of in the first place.
With the coup against Joe complete, the president’s 2025 departure spells the end for Hunter’s pricey “masterpieces” flying off the shelves, as noted by Townhall [2].
Now that the Hunter brand is in its clearance phase, his “art” market is drying up faster than paint in the desert sun. It turns out the real masterpiece was never on the canvas – it was in the creative ways the family found to keep cash flowing.
When influence is pricier than paint.
For years, Hunter’s canvases sold for absurd amounts (to unknown people) – often for as much as half a million dollars a pop. But let’s be real: the colors may have been vibrant, but the sales were more about the family connections than artistic talent. And as soon as Joe Biden announced he wasn’t running in 2024, the façade crumbled, leaving Hunter’s so-called masterpieces looking more like overpriced finger paintings than collectibles.
Art experts were never really “buying” it.
Art experts have been polite (too polite) about Hunter’s creative endeavors, calling his work “short- lived” in the art market. Translation: nobody was buying his art for its artistic merit, they were buying it for who his dad was.
It was never about the “art.”
The Biden family has a history of cashing in on their name, and Hunter’s art career fit right in. His short-lived art career was just another page out of the family’s well-worn playbook for sketchy cash grabs – one that’s finally closing for good (I hope).
If the Bidens were smart (debatable), they’ve stashed away enough of their shady millions over the years and made enough savvy stock market moves with a little inside information, that they can live in the world they have become accustomed to with their beach vacations and caviar dinners.
Closing time for the cash flow canvas.
But with Joe packing up his last boxes in the White House, Hunter’s days of passing off pricey finger paintings as fine art are finally over. Maybe he’ll find a new hobby…like actually working for a living. Nah… that will never happen.
