Johnny Depp has quickly raised $3 million Through the sale of his artwork.

Depp’s post on Instagram was captioned only “NOW AT #CASTLEFINEART”, which prompted a rush of traffic to the gallery’s website causing it to crash.

He said: “I’ve always used art to express my feelings and to reflect on those who matter most to me, like my family, friends and people I admire.

“My paintings surround my life, but I kept them to myself and limited myself. No one should ever limit themselves.”
