Who would have thought Tyga gets busy on the art scene? Well, besides dropping some venomous bars with Game on "Chi-Raq", Tyga is now proving that he has a deeper side to him. He recently posted a picture on his Instagram displaying himself standing alongside his first painting.

The artwork was inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat. Tyga - who is a fan of everything Egyptian - painted various Egyptian symbols ranging from snakes, to the eye of Horus, and more.

There were a bevy of comments applauding Tyga's newly discovered talent. Some were, "That's some G shit," to "Haha what's with rappers trying to paint, this looks like one of @snoopdogg paintings u guys should paint together." Hopefully Tyga's hobby isn't long lived and he has more paintings in store for us.
