THE ROLLING Stones have been immortalised in oil on canvas by Ronnie Wood.
The 69-year-old guitarist has captured rock and roll history by painting his band mates.
His personal collection of paintings, which document life as a Rolling Stone are now going on sale, giving fans the chance to own a piece of rock and roll history.
The paintings recreate some of the most famous moments of rock and roll history - including their 1975 performance of Brown Sugar from the back of a flatbed truck driving down Fifth Avenue, New York.
Originally painted between 2005 and 2009, Ronnie has now decided to sell the last remaining prints of his paintings - from his own personal collection, at Brighton gallery, Castle Fine Art.
Ronnie, who received formal art training at Ealing College before turning to music as a musician, singer, songwriter, artist and radio personality, said art was like therapy to him.
He said: "There is no kind of therapy like the one you have from starting a picture and then seeing it through to the end.”
Gallery Manager Valerie Kaye said buying one of the canvases will give people a chance to own a piece of "rock and roll history".
She said: “Ronnie Wood and his fellow Stones band members continue to draw the crowds – the band’s popularity is only growing.
"This is a chance to own their very own piece of rock and roll history with this new collection of works from Ronnie Wood’s personal archive, all hand-signed by the artist himself.
“This pictorial journey through the annals of rock and roll is a joy to behold.”
Ronnie Wood’s new collection will is now available to view at Castle Fine Art, Brighton, 2 Nile Pavilions, BN1 1HW.
Prices for the artwork start from £2,250.
