It is as natural to find Ronnie Wood with a pencil as with a guitar, drawing portraits of contemporaries and finding inspiration from his musical influences. In America in the early 1980's Ronnie Wood produced his first prints - three woodcuts and a series of monotypes. At that time Wood was not yet an experienced printmaker so it was with great enthusiasm that he seized upon an opportunity in 1987 to send severa ... (more)
