This week’s Rod Art
As you know we like to bring you all different kinds of Rod art and this week we feature abstract, expressionist artist Jan lord who is based in Vancouver B.C
This piece is titled “Do You Think I’m Sexy” and is a 36”x36” oil pastel acrylic cardboard and glaze on wood panel
Jan told SMILER this week ” I am an old rock n’ roller artist who loves to paint to some great tunes. Rod has always been a classic and favorite of mine. I have seen him live 3 times. My art evokes great memories for myself and collectors. Adding the lyrics to the painting gives another fun dimension”.

Sing It again Rod Update
The first castings have now been done and looking great, they are going to look stunning when Tim paints them..If you want one be quick we only have 3 slots left before we get to the cut off of 50.
Tim will be doing the figures in batches of 10 at a time over the next few weeks.
Our figure has been commissioned to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Rod’s first official compilation album Sing It Again Rod Released last month 50 years ago (10th August 1973) .
The album is notable for its Peter Corriston-designed die-cut album sleeve shaped like an old fashioned drinking glass [Very apt at the moment!] and this will be acknowledged in the figure of Rod in all his Faces splendour from 1973.
The figure will be around 8 inches in height and will be a strictly limited edition of 50 and each figure will be numbered.. We have a few places left, if you want a Rod statue, they will be £95 plus postage that is £7 UK, Int’l tracked Postage- USA =£25, Canada=£24, Norway =£15, EU =£12.
A £20 deposit will secure your figure, If you would like any further information or have any questions about this project please contact me on [email protected]
