I had drawn Paul at a music conference in Cambridge and asked him to sit for me.I spent a wonderful day drawing and taking photographs while he played Bach and Ysaye..my idea of heaven.Ian Fletcher made the armature for me and worked out what size to make the paper violin..
I worked in clay and paper ,the cast was mounted with a steel rod and a stone base.I drove it to his inaugural lecture as professor of medicine in Truro,where it sat in front of him.
Paul has the only copy at his home.
