Artist who painted Bill Clinton in dress and heels had ‘no idea’ it was hanging in Ep

[Common]

So contrary to @AgentZero comment that you can buy them for 40.00. Epstein had the original bought at auction and the ones you buy for 40.00 are prints


The artist behind Jeffrey Epstein’s now-viral portrait of Bill Clinton in a blue dress says she sold the painting at a Tribecca Ball fundraiser several years ago — and had “no idea” that he was the one who had purchased it.

“In 2012, as a grad student at the New York Academy of Art, I painted pictures of Presidents Clinton and Bush as part of my Master’s thesis,” explained Petrina Ryan-Kleid in a statement to The Post Thursday.


“When the school put on a fundraiser at the Tribecca Ball that year, they sold my painting to one of the attendees. I had no idea who the buyer was at the time,” said Ryan-Kleid, a New York-based artist from Australia. “As with most of my paintings, I had completely lost track of this piece when it was sold seven years ago. So it was a complete surprise to me to learn yesterday that it wound up in Epstein’s home.”

Sources told The Post on Wednesday that Epstein — who was facing sex trafficking charges before his alleged suicide — had the oil painting hanging up in his home for all to see.

I thought the storyline was that Epstein was a diehard Democrat and buddy buddy with Bubba. Ah well, so much for that.

Can not imagine why anyone would want to hang that in their house..... I must just not understand "Art"

This is art, Cannons Front. Period correct for my 1890's wash station in my man cave.
Tastefully painted with period hairstyle.
It was almost a perfect image of the lady i was dating in Melbourne, FL when i bought it at the flea market there.
Now she hangs prominently and with tasteful honor in my man cave above the 1890's wash station.
Along with original medicine bottles, wash pan, and saddle scabbard with 30/40 Krag.

What about this says that Clinton and Epstein weren't buddies?

Everything.

It would be kinda like me - an Obama fan buying a mocking portrait of Barack in drag. Sorry - Not believable.

Face it, by all accounts Eppy was apolitical. He was transactional -

IOW, anyone he could use to make a buck or get laid. Kinda like his buddy the Dotard.

The fact that the artist put Bill Clinton in a blue dress and pointing his finger at the viewer of the picture should tell you that the picture is mocking those who supported Bill's impeachment. It's an "in your face" thing.

Nope. One of the more aware members.

You do have one hell of an imagination which give you the capacity to express your obvious hate for Billy in a way no one would ever have imagined.
It's no wonder no one takes you seriously.
Thanks for the entertainment.
