This artwork is featured in Billy’s new book ‘The Accidental Artist’.
"This is 'Yo-Yo Man' and he explains himself" said Billy Connolly as he described this artwork. Full of colour and bold figurative forms, the humble yo-yo is at the centre of this piece and reflects a key component of Billy's childhood and personality. Growing up, Billy had a humming yo-yo which gave him "hours of unbridled joy" and statue of Robert Knox in Edinburgh's St. Gile's Cathedral, whose hand famously points to the sky, always deserved a yo-yo according to the artist. "It asks nothing of you... it is just a fun thing", much like this iconic artwork which has been infused with vivid colour.
This, the first 2022 instalment of his highly successful collection Born On A Rainy Day, is replete with dynamic colours that allow his world-renowned figurative artworks to take on new life and meaning. Displayed on 100% cotton deckle-edged paper, float-mounted in a black painted and silver foiled pine frame, this artwork will add a bright and bold touch of musical and comedic history to your home.

The artist
Billy Connolly
The world-famous musician and comedian's iconic artworks have no less impact than one of his legendary comedy sketches. The faceless figures possess an extraordinary self-awareness and humanity. Devoid of emotion or expression, their anonymity opens them up to individual interpretation, creating a unique bond with the viewer.
Featured by The Times and documentaries including Billy Connolly: It's Been a Pleasure, his minimalist drawings have been described as 'poignant', 'funny' and 'enigmatic' by critics.
