Paintings from the private collection of Ronnie Wood are on show in Exeter
Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood has released works of art from his personal archive for the first time - at an exhibition in Devon.
Wood, who went to Ealing Art College aged 16, is a well-recognised artist and much of his work is hung in the Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
The guitarist, 68, most famously documents the world of rock n' roll and celebrity, having painted the Stones numerous times, as well as Eric Clapton, Kate Moss and Jack Nicholson.

He's also known for landscapes and paintings of horses.
Fans can get their hands on a piece of rock and roll history with a new collection put on display and for sale in Exeter on Friday.
The works are all hand-signed by the artist and embossed with the Private Collection seal and provide a unique and revealing insight into the world of the band.
The Stones, who recently played to crowds in Cuba, have been the subject of countless documentaries, concert films and books.

They recently got the museum-exhibit treatment with the London opening of an exhibit of their vast personal archive over two floors and nine galleries at the Saatchi Gallery.
The show, Exhibitionism, is a treat for fans and features stage clothing, guitars and other gear, displays of classic album cover art and tour posters and the history of their legendary "lips" logo.
Ronnie Wood's new collection is on show at Castle Fine Art on Cathedral Yard, Exeter.
Prices for the individual works start from £2,250.
