The range coincides with the special reissue of Black and Blue, the cult classic Rolling Stones album that first made Ronnie Wood a permanent member of the band.
Speaking on the impact of the paintings, Wood said:
“It’s hard to believe it’s been 50 years since I joined The Rolling Stones. In these portraits, I wanted to capture the spirit of Mick, Keith, me, and our late friend Charlie Watts, and the live shows we’ve been lucky enough to play together. I’m proud of the journey we’ve been on, and it felt right to share these prints with the world now. Art has defined my life, and I’ve been painting even longer than I’ve been playing music.”
The legendary guitarist has painting embedded within his soul. Before music became his career, Ronnie picked up his first brush during his childhood days and was instantly hooked.
“Art fills my life, art is my life, and art will continue to be my life.”
