Ronnie Wood is many things - musician in two of Britain's most successful bands of the last half-century, including his longstanding non-staff member arrangement with the Rolling Stones; mentor, sometimes companion to nubile East European ladies; and long-time stalwart of the British rock'n'roll establishment, of which he is an acute observer, as we shall see.
He is also a celebrated artist, often putting pen, pencil and watercolour to paper to chart his unusual journey from the 1960s when he first strummed with The Faces to the present day, and this week sees a Mayfair gallery assembling some of his finest works.
More than 100 pieces furnish the collection, with particular highlights including his personal renderings of his Rolling Stones band mates and close musical friends such as Eric Clapton and Sheryl Crow.
There are also pictures of such fellow icons as Charlie Watts, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Blondie and Jerry Hall.
Despite Wood's name being most familiarly associated with music, he is a trained artist, having studied at Ealing Art College alongside Queen's Freddie Mercury, and The Who's Pete Townsend. Respected art historian Brian Sewell calls him "a respected and accomplished artist", and he certainly has appealing subject matter to anyone interested in the past 50 years of British popular music-making.
Ronnie Wood: Faces, Times and Places is being hosted by the Symbolic Collection at 27 Cork Street, London W1S 3NG, and will run all this week until 12 November, 10am to 6pm. Click on our Pictures below for a taster...
