# Lipstick Drawn Self-Portraits Kate Moss' Art Could Fetch $70,000 By Pearl | Published 2008-09-25 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blood-and-lipstick-self-portraits-kate-moss-art-work-could-fetch-70000 References: [dailymail](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1060315/Kate-Mosss-art-debut-hammer-featuring-lipstick-Pete-Dohertys-blood.html) Kate Moss' first masterpiece is up for auction. Her self-portrait, painted with bold strokes of lipstick on a napkin, shows the supermodel smoking a cigarette. The napkin also bears blood stains from Pete Doherty, the troubled rocker she was in a relationship with at the time. Doherty also scrawled "Who needs blood when you've got lipstick?" at the top. Doherty sold the canvas to an anonymous buyer who received a receipt written on a napkin from Soho House, a private club. The mystery buyer is now selling it. The expected selling price is £30,000-£40,000 or $60,000-70,000. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 87% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Artistic Self-expression:** Opportunities for innovative ways of personal artistic expression, using unconventional mediums such as lipstick or napkins. - **Celebrity Memorabilia:** Innovative ways for fans to own pieces of their favorite celebrities by auctioning off personal items and unique art pieces. - **Nostalgia Collectibles:** Opportunities to create a market for nostalgic memorabilia, with the ability to fetch high prices for unique pieces like those of Kate Moss and Pete Doherty. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art & Culture:** Opportunities to create a new category of modern and personalized art that can challenge the traditional boundaries of the industry. - **Auction Houses:** Innovative ways to auction off unique and rare items such as personal memorabilia and unconventional artistic expressions. - **Entertainment & Media:** Opportunities to provide fans with more immersive and interactive experiences by allowing them to own unique pieces of their favorite celebrities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Snack Artwork Auctions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mischief-by-chester.md) - [Edible Chocolate Lipsticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-x-doja-cat.md) - [Classic Painting-Inspired Luxe Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bee-bottle.md) - [Ultra-Femme Phone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildflower-cases.md) - [Country Star Lipstick Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dolly-parton-2.md) - [Rediscovered Iconic Masterpieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gustav-klimt1.md) - [Charitable Low-Cost Art Raffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1-picasso-for-100-euros.md) - [Abstract Artwork Champagne Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dom-prignon-and-jeanmichel-basquiat.md) - [Artist Painting-Adorned Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut-vodka-bottle-1.md)
