The Big Yin is swapping laughs for fine art 🎨
One of Scotland’s most-loved comedians has swapped laughs for fine art and is to sell four new pieces.
The pieces have been launched through his Born on a Rainy Day art series and are being sold for £1,250 each – though they can be bought as a set for £4,500 framed or £3,300 unframed.Pontius Tries Pilates He added: “I said it would be funny to call it Pontius Pilates, then I thought people would be offended by that, so I fiddled around and I got Pontius Tries Pilates.
“Just doing the things they do, thinking they’ll do you good – I’ve spent my life doing that. You see guys in their 60s out running in the evening and you think: ‘Get a chair. Get a chair and a bottle of beer and switch on the telly; who are you kidding?’.The Nightmare piece is inspired by Sir Billy’s own bad dreams, which he says he never really remembers upon waking up.
