Bob Dylan has officially sold out! Limited edition graphics by the rock legend sold out within four days of going on sale at art gallery breeze.

The Peebles gallery was one of only two Scottish galleries awarded the rights to showcase Dylan’s much anticipated The Drawn Blank Series, which was limited to only 295 editions worldwide.

Due to the huge interest in the collection, gallery owner Bob Corsie has secured permission to extend the exhibition until Sunday 29 June and has sourced a small number of additional selected pieces for sale.

Based on drawings and sketches made by Dylan while on the road from 1989 to 1992, the watercolour and gouache paintings in The Drawn Blank Series were created during 2007 and visually echo the stylistic hallmarks of Dylan’s prose, poetry and music.

Bob Corsie said: “The Drawn Blank exhibition created unprecedented interest and our allocated collection was completely sold out within four days.

“We have permission to extend the exhibition until Sunday and to suport the extended exhibition the breeze buying team have secured a very small additional supply of selected pieces.

“We are aware that many of the visitors to the gallery were disappointed that they had missed out and we hope that this small additional supply will allow some people a second chance to buy an image of their choice.”

Each of the prints is individually signed by the rock hero and range in price from £1000 for a single print to £35,000 for the full set of works. So for those wishing to buy or view these pieces, ‘Don’t think twice, it’s alright.’
