Sylvester Stallone sold his own original artwork for $410,000 at a recent charity auction.

The 78-year-old Rambo star revealed his lesser-known talent in a clip he shared with TMZ.

He filmed the high-energy bidding war for his piece тιтled ‘Knocking Heads,’ held at The Wynn H๏τel in Las Vegas on Friday evening.

His piece is a nearly wall-sized canvas filled vivid greens, yellows and reds tones — seemingly inspired by a street-graffiti meets cubism style.

And in true Sly fashion, the work sees an stenciled depiction of himself as his iconic character Rocky Balboa and other abstract faces lost in thought. On the bottom left, the words ‘Still fighting – 12/21/18’ can be seen etched into the canvas in blank paint.

Back in March 2023, the actor gave fans an up close look of ‘Knocking Heads’ in an Instagram post showcasing various other paintings.

Sly revealed to the outlet that the funds would be donated to AIDS research at the Sin City gala hosted by the amfAR foundation. 

In a previous Instagram post the Hollywood vet shared showing off another original piece, he revealed he began painting at the age of nine while encouraging fans to give the hobby a try.

Stallone said: ‘People asked me when I started painting, actually, they used to have to tie a pork chop around my neck to get the family dog to play with me. So I decided I better entertain myself. And I started painting when I was about nine, and it turned out to be very interesting. I recommend it for everyone’

He rhapsodized the benefits of painting and how he sketched out the characters from his hit Rocky films for inspiration, prior to writing about them.

‘Before I started to write Rocky for example, I’d always draw the characters before I wrote about them, so I had some idea of what the image was going to be,’ the actor-turned-artist said. ‘So I was not just haphazardly writing about some nebulous person. It’s actually a specific image.’

The New York native went on to explain his minimalistic piece ‘Before Thought’ and how it served as an exercise for him to express the ‘stuff banging around’ in his head.

‘And this one here, I think I call it “Before Thought”, before we have an idea. You have inspiration, inspiration. You can’t put your finger on it’s probably just all this stuff banging around in your head. I call it “roof brain chatter,” he said.

‘You know. It says out there, all these different images. And then eventually it settles down into an image that we can relate to, like: a person, a thing, a horse and flower.’

Sly explained that painting came into his life during an ‘idle time’ in which we believed he was ‘wasting’ his untapped creativity

He continued in the inspirational caption: ‘For me, a writer, painting goes beyond words – it’s ineffable. The brush is my vessel and the strokes are my voice’

‘A tumultuous dance of thoughts before inspiration strikes. If you’re bored, find an outlet. Start creating. Keep punching,’ he wrote

Sly explained that painting came into his life during an ‘idle time’ in which he believed he was ‘wasting’ his untapped creativity. 

‘I needed a change, and I found it on an empty canvas,’ he penned to his audience of 18.9M followers.

He continued in the inspirational caption: ‘For me, a writer, painting goes beyond words – it’s ineffable. The brush is my vessel and the strokes are my voice. 

‘A tumultuous dance of thoughts before inspiration strikes. If you’re bored, find an outlet. Start creating. Keep punching.’

In his 2023 post showing off ‘Knocking Heads,’ he admitted he had taken a break from painting but felt the time had come for him to return to the hobby.

‘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,’ he penned.
