Pete Doherty makes painting with his own blood

Washington (ANI): Rocker Pete Doherty made a painting with his own blood and sold it off to the owner of his local taxi firm to pay off outstanding debts of 3,330 dollars. The Babyshambles singer created the artwork, which he describes as his 'best' one, after a row with his managers shortly before he was due to play at legendary British music festival Glastonbury this summer (08).

The rocker was stunned with his creativity but he had to hand it over as settlement for his huge cab bill.

"I did it the day I thought I wasn't going to be playing Glastonbury... I'd just fallen out with my managers, so I decided to stay home and paint instead...," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying. "It's probably the best painting I've done but I gave it to the boss of my local taxi firm because I'd run up a GBP1,800 bill," he added.
