JACKSONVILLE, Fla.,
June 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Nationally syndicated radio talk show host Mark Kaye painted a portrait of President
Donald Trump during his live radio
show. The painting was inspired by President Joe Biden's son Hunter revealing that he has
changed careers once again and is becoming a professional
artist.
"When we reported that Hunter
Biden was painting full time, we laughed," explains Kaye.
"But when we heard that art dealers were prepared to offer
$500,000 to $1,000,000 for an original Hunter Biden painting, we cried. That's when we
decided that if a talentless ne'er-do-well like Hunter Biden could get millions of dollars for
his paintings, so could we!"
Mark Kaye didn't create the
portrait alone. He crowdsourced ideas from his listeners all around
the world.
"We took live phone calls from our fans and asked them what we
should paint," explains Kaye. "If they asked for it, we painted it.
That's how we ended up with our portrait of President Donald Trump. He's a fan favorite to say the
least."
In addition to President Trump, listeners to the show suggested
Kaye paint a wall, a pickle, a pink flamingo, and a bat smoking a
cigarette.
"The bat," says Kaye, "is symbolic of the Covid-19 pandemic
which was originally linked to the infamous flying rodent. The
cigarette dangling out of his mouth is an homage to Hunter Biden himself."
Kaye's portrait is currently for sale via online auction at
BETTERTHANHUNTER.com with an asking price of $10,000 or best offer.
"We've seen Hunter Biden's work
and, quite frankly, this painting is way better. That's why we
decided on BETTERTHANHUNTER.com," says Kaye. "As far as the
$10,000 asking price, well, we didn't
want to be greedy. Plus, people love a bargain. Instead of paying
$1,000,000 for a painting by the
President's son, you can get one that is better than Hunter's for a
fraction of the price. It's a real steal!"
Within minutes of listing the sale, fans of the Mark Kaye Show
had driven the price up to $2100.
The auction ends on Monday, June
21st, at 2:45 eastern time.
The winner will be announced LIVE during The Mark Kaye
Show.
