PUBLIC COLLECTIONS

Jim had varying degrees of commercial success with his artworks. Countless painting, drawings and sculptures were sold but few of these details remain. The photos do however give a sense of the rich diversity of his talent. Anyone who has any of his works, or artworks by other members of his family, might like to get in touch via the web link to Kenny & Gordon Munro

Below is listed some of Jim's work which can be seen currently across the country in public collections.
