As with every one of Billy Connolly’s humorous artworks, there is an amusing tale behind Windswept & Interesting. Reflecting on memories from his youth, Billy revealed that ‘windswept and interesting’ was a title bestowed on him by folk singer, Archie Fisher, many years ago at Methil Steelworks Club in Fife. Since this moment, Billy has made it his mission to live up to the title. The phrase has followed him throughout his impressive career, providing guidance for Billy’s attitude, outlook, and of course, style.
