jack vettriano no longer able to paint

Jack Vettriano, the self-taught Scottish painter behind Britain's best-selling image of 2012, *The Singing Butler* (1992), has announced that he may never paint again after dislocating his shoulder. Vettriano told the Independent that he is undergoing physiotherapy but faces a long recovery and cannot paint in the foreseeable future. The news comes as a blow to his devoted fan base, who had been hoping for new work following his 2013–14 retrospective at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, which drew 123,000 visitors.
