In October 2005 I did a painting of the founder member
of the Rolling Stones- Brian
Jones for Pat Andrews- Brian Jones’s ex girlfriend
and mother of his child. She invited me down to Hackney
in London to meet her and to give her the painting
in person. So as a massive Rolling Stones fan I was
only too pleased to do so. I went down and met up
with Pat, Trevor Hobley (the editor of the Brian Jones
web site) and Dick Hattrell (one of Brian’s good friends).
I
had a great day with them and got chance to talk to
Pat about her personal memories of the early days
of the Rolling Stones, how they formed and about when
she shared a flat in Edith Grove with Brian, Mick
(Jagger) and Keith (Richards) and used to watch them
jam together. It was a great experience and one that
I will never forget. I am pleased to know that I will
be meeting up with them again soon, as they want to
keep in contact, plus I will be doing some limited
edition drawings of Brian soon to be sold at the Brian
Jones Fan Club.
*Up-date.
Trevor Hobley (the editor of the Brian Jones Fan Club)
has put a section dedicated to me. I have now completed
the Ltd Edition pencil drawing showing Brian through
his Rolling Stones 60's era, and prints of it are
now available through the Brian Jones Fan Club.

pay your respects to Brian and to see Trevor's write
