Arsenal full-back Bellerin is not afraid to spend money on art, he has proven this with his latest acquisition, a $25,000 painting of himself.
The painting was created by talented British artist “Endless”.
He asked the artist to make him a painting after the two met at Endless’ solo exhibition in Kensington in August last year.
The artwork will feature in Endless’ deities collection, a series of paintings showcasing the contrast between old and modern-day symbols of worship.
Bellerin clearly pleased with his work said:
“In my opinion, Endless is one of the best and coolest British artists out there today,’ Bellerin said, as he received the paintings in his man-cave, which also showcases a number of football and basketball jerseys.

“His work appears bold and raw on the face of it, but when you look closely each piece contains a powerful message about worship in the world today”
“With my interest in fashion and culture, his art speaks to me on many levels, and that’s why I commissioned this piece. I am glad to have finally received my artwork and am humbled Endless is going to feature it as part of his Deities collection.”
Endless also had a bit to say:
“I was very interested when Hector came to me with this commission.
“His position as a professional footballer and fashion status symbol means he is the perfect balance between the various things people worship today.”
