Este escandaloso titular aparece el Mail Online: el guitarra de los Rolling Stones saca a la venta un cuadro pintado por él donde aparece desnuda su esposa, Sally Humpreys, que actualmente cuenta 36 años de edad. Luego suaviza o pule la noticia, al aclarar que la señora del cuadro guarda un asombroso parecido con Sally. La obra sale a la venta por 200.000 libras en la Castle Fine Art Gallery del barrio de Mayfair en Londres, de la que Ronnie Wood es artista residente.
El retrato, titulado simplemente Sally, lo pintó Wood en diciembre del 2012, y representa a una mujer de rodillas, con las piernas abiertas y los brazos recogidos detrás de la nuca. Como pintor, el músico ha recibido elogiosas críticas en todo el mundo, donde se han visto sus trabajos que incluyen retratos de sus compañeros de grupo, sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards y Charie Watts. Curiosidad: asegura que cuando pinta se inspira escuchando música de Mozart.
El precio mínimo de un cuadro de Woods es de 1.500 libras y se sabe que uno de sus primeros éxitos lo tuvo con el retrato de una chica de 19 años, nacida en Kazakhstan, que trabajaba de camarera en un bar y con la que tuvo un romance estando él casado con su exmujer Jo. Vendió la obra por 8.000 libras en la galería Number One, de Dublín, muy cerca de County Kildare, donde Woods vivió en su adolescencia.

Ronnie is selling it for £200,000Rolling Stones star Ronnie Wood is selling a painting of his stunning naked wife Sally – for a whopping £200,000.
The rocker, 66, is flogging a huge canvas which shows his third missus, 36, in all her glory, in a posh gallery in London’s upmarket Mayfair.
The nude masterpiece - measuring approximately 1.3 m by 1.6m – is simply entitled Sally and is on display at Castle Fine Art as part of the guitarist’s Raw Instinct collection.
It shows his naked wife-of-two-years kneeling down with her eyes closed and her hands behind her head. It details her distinct mole on her upper lip.
Sally posed for Ronnie at his artist-in-residence studio at the gallery.
It is the most expensive piece in the exhibition, with other paintings centering around his career with the Rolling Stones and costing between £10,000 to £50,000. Other arty paintings of Sally have previously been sold.
Speaking at Sally’s Live at the Ambassadors concert in London, Ronnie told the Mirror his wife is a great muse: “We always have fun together, Sall’s great at modelling.
“There’s plenty more, we did some more recently in the Seychelles.”
Ronnie Wood's SallyWell, wow There is another nude of beautiful Sally, who owns her theatre company, on display in America at Connecticut Benton museum in America entitled The Bum. The live sketch shows his wife from behind lying down and was developed on Ronnie’s iPad using a paintbrush application.
Former alcholic Ronnie credits painting as helping him stay off the booze. Speaking last Autumn he said: “Drink and drugs take the edge off the adrenaline, but they take their toll, especially when the tour ends. Suddenly you go from the big kerfuffle of touring to, bang, nothing. I think drink and drugs were the way to combat it and it worked for a while. Obviously it all backfired and luckily enough I got out of that way of life, and now I’m channelling my time much more creatively.”
Ronnie has five children from previous marriages to Krissy, a former model to whom he was married from 1971 to 1978.
His divorce from Jo, to whom he was married for 24 years, was finalised in 2011. She auctioned off items from their marriage, provoking a dispute with the guitarist who said his Rolling Stones tour outfits were not hers to sell.
