Ronnie Wood debuts latest Rolling Stones-inspired artwork

By editorial board on March 9, 2024

The Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood is taking inspiration from his bandmates for his latest works of art.

The rocker has debuted a new collectors series, titled “Burning,” featuring three paintings that “explore the interplay between the members of The Stones.” The description notes the art captures “intense moments in performance when the band are ‘on fire.' As the viewer you take the part of the audience - feeling the heat!”

The paintings include “Play on Hands,” which explores frontman Mick Jagger’s movements onstage and how his hands are “as communicative as his vocals.” There’s also “Twang,” featuring Ronnie, Keith Richards and the late Charlie Watts, and “Weaving,” focusing on the dynamic between Ronnie and Mick.

Prints of all three paintings are on sale now individually and as a three-print set. All are numbered and hand-signed by Wood.

But Wood may soon be too busy to focus on his art, as The Rolling Stones are set to kick off their Hackney Diamonds tour on April 28 in Houston, Texas, with dates confirmed through July 17 in Santa Clara, California. A complete list of dates can be found at rollingstones.com.

Mick’s movement takes centre stage in this expressive study; his hands as communicative as his vocals.

All three prints in this series with 'matching edition numbers' at a special launch price.

 

Prints of the work are available in multiple sizes, each of which is individually numbered and signed.

My favourite Stones album without me on it is Beggars Banquet.”
Ronnie Wood, 1998

❤️Marking a quarter of a century since the original release of Ronnie’s seminal work, Beggars Banquet II, this new, limited-edition print celebrates the classic 1968 Stones album of the same name - itself about to celebrate its 55th anniversary:

Earlier this year, Wood painted a fiberglass gorilla statue as part of the charity’s Tusk Gorilla Trail 2023 campaign, which featured 15 uniquely painted life-size fiberglass ape statues displayed in London’s Covent Garden neighborhood. Now, those statues are being auctioned off to benefit Tusk’s efforts to protect endangered wildlife in Africa.

Wood’s statue is titled “Paint It Black,” and was inspired by The Rolling Stones’ classic 1966 song of the same name. The 76-year-old Rock & Roll Hall of Famer’s design features black and gray acrylic paint, with the song title appearing down the back of the gorilla.

As of November 1, bidding on Wood’s gorilla statue stood at 7,500 pounds (about $9,100), although the sculpture is expected to fetch between 10,000 and 25,000 pounds (about $12,000 to about $33,300). You can check out photos of Wood with the statue he painted on his social media sites and TuskGorillaTrail.com.
