We're all aware Kanye West is a talented music producer and musician, but a lot of people don't know Yeezy is an incredible artist. 

This past Monday, Kanye's rarely-seen portfolio of artwork from when he was 17 years old appeared on PBS’ Antiques Roadshow.

The collection was brought into the show by the husband of West’s first cousin.  Art specialist Laura Wolley explained that it can fetch anywhere between $16,000 USD and $23,000 USD.

Kanye studied art at a number of schools, including Hyde Park Academy, the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago State University & Nanjing University in China.
