Jim Carrey rents art space at Julian Schnabel’s studio

Jim Carrey is serious about being an artist. Carrey, who’s shooting “Mr. Popper’s Penguins” in the city, has rented space at Julian Schnabel‘s studio here. A source tells us, “Jim is working on a large abstract canvas. His work is actually quite good.” Reps for Carrey and Schnabel didn’t get back to us, but the star has tweeted pictures of his abstract paintings. And in 2008, he told Oprah Winfrey, “I did a painting for Jenny [McCarthy, then his girlfriend], and it took me 50 hours.”
