Prince George's special skill he's inherited from King Charles and Kate Middleton

Prince George's special skill he's inherited from King Charles and Kate Middleton

Prince George has already taken after his parents in many ways, whether its due to his looks, his interest in sports or the way he is learning what is future role will involve. As well as this, George has clearly inherited a passion for art from his mother - something which was seen when his parents shared a painting he had done of a reindeer and robins in a snowy scene to celebrate Christmas Day in 2022.

The young royal's talent shocked and impressed those on social media - but he is certainly not the only member of his family with an artistic side. Whether it is his grandfather, his mother or the late Queen's niece, it is clear where George has inherited his skills from.

The Princess of Wales has showcased her own artistic flair a number of times over the years, whether it’s by taking her children’s birthday portrait photographs, or when one of her drawings was featured on her sister Pippa’s order of service when she married James Matthews in 2017.

A love of the arts is something which runs deep for Kate as she is the patron of the National Portrait Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum - as well as many other important cultural sites.

A talent for the arts clearly runs in the Windsor side of the family too, as both King Charles and the late Prince Philip have been notable artists.

The monarch has been pictured with paintbrush in hand everywhere from the ski slopes of Switzerland to the Imperial Palace in Japan. In 2022, 79 of his watercolour paintings were exhibited at the Garrison Chapel in Chelsea.

King Charles has frequently spoken about the benefits painting has had on his mental health over the years and is just one of a handful of royals to have had his work professionally exhibited.

The then-Prince of Wales spoke of his hobby on a display panel and said that painting "refreshes parts of the soul which other activities can’t reach".

He added: "You become increasingly aware of things that may have escaped your attention previously – the quality of light and shade, of tone and texture and of the shape of buildings. It all requires the most intense concentration and consequently is one of the most relaxing and therapeutic exercises I know.

"In fact, in my case, I find it transports me into another dimension which, quite literally, refreshes parts of the soul which other activities can’t reach. I took up painting entirely because I found photography less than satisfying."

The member of the Royal Family who is perhaps best known for her artistic abilities is Princess Margaret's daughter, Lady Sarah Chatto.

The late Queen's niece attended Bedales boarding school in Hampshire and grew her passion and talent for art. Sarah has displayed her art at The Redfern Gallery in London since 1995 under the name Sarah Armstrong-Jones.

Sarah has passed this passion onto her eldest son, Samuel Chatto, as he has already made a name for himself as a talented potter and ceramist.
