Musician, songwriter, painter, sculptor, and now window dresser.
Early next year Ronnie Wood is to design a window display for luxury London department store Harrods.
The window is rumoured to be Rolling Stones themed, and will include some of his artwork. Wood was approached to create a display as part of the department store's 'Harrods Rocks' event in February.
The store is also hosting an exhibition called 'Born to Rock', which features historic and vintage guitars owned by the likes of Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.
Ronnie Wood's art work is on permanent display at the Scream Gallery in
London.

Yes,
tho I don't know how long the guitar exibition lasts, but the date for the 2000 guitars is on
At 8.00a.m. on Sunday 18th February 2007.
As part of the 'Harrods Rocks' promotion, the world famous store in London's Knightsbridge is hosting an exhibition of historic, designer and legendary electric guitars. Born To Rock will feature the world's first electric guitar, the Frying Pan, which was made in 1931 and has never before left America.
There will be quitars once played by Jimi Hendrix, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters as well as contemporary artists including Oasis, Franz Ferdinand and Kasabian. Harrods will be erecting a stage for one off performances by established acts as well as new talent. There will also be talks by music industry figures, guitar masterclasses and displays of beauty collections and glam rock jewellery.
At 8.00a.m. on Sunday 18th February, Harrods will host a bid to break the world record for the most guitars played simultaneously - they hope to attract 2,000 people to play Deep Purple's 'Smoke On The Water'!
