Meet Becks, the artist

WASHINGTON - David Beckham has revealed he would have turned to the canvas had he not been successful as a football player.

The one-time world’s highest paid footballer said he may have set himself up as an artist if he would have failed on the field.

“I was very into art, so maybe I would have become an artist of some kind,” Contactmusic quoted him as telling People magazine.

“My children are always asking me to draw different things for them,” he added. (ANI)
