In the latest self-portrait that he shared, almost 20 hours back, the man is seen painting himself for the fourth time. What started with a chair and then moved to a short canvas and back to a lifestyle portrait, where he is seen staring at the camera, is now replaced by a much smaller canvas. Interestingly, he is seen holding a white coloured kitten as he paints himself. Fans are excited to see him add a unique new element in the upcoming painting.
