Steelhouse Lane Lock Up

[cookie273uk]

I have been requested on behalf of Steve Rice (co-Author of 'A Fair Cop') to paint the old Lock up in Steelhouse Lane which they (the Police) hope to turn into a Police museum. It is well over a 130 years old and they wished me to portray it as it would look years ago. The have hopes of printing copies for sale to help defray the costs. Have attached painting. which Steve collected last Friday Eric

Morturn, the print sales are to go to the police museum, I have sold many painting in the past about 250 and I would like to give something back in return, now just paint for the love of it. Eric

They have since use the painting to make a 1000 piece jigsaw surrounded by some of the peaky blinder villains who spent time in there, pic attached. Eric

Eric,

An excellent painting there with lots of character, and some sterling fund-raising going on there. Good luck to all concerned.
