I used to play in a band with a guy called Richard, who quit to focus on a new music shop business. A few years later, the business has grown (with his partner James) into the best guitar shop – www.richtonemusic.co.uk – for a long, long way!

They are both strangely fascinated by my work, so I made something to go on their Christmas tree this year, an Elias figure sporting a Gibson Flying V guitar (Richard’s favourite model).

I’ll take a photo when he is hung by the balls on the tree 😉
