Sir Paul McCartney has reportedly turned to staring at a piece of art in order to forget his divorce battle with estranged wife Heather Mills.
According to reports, McCartney is a regular visitor at the Kenwood House Art Gallery in North London where he has become fixated with a paint entitled, ‘The Guitar Player.’
The 17th century portrait by Jan Vermeer features a teenage girl strumming a guitar.
According to a ‘source,’ McCartney has spent as long as “40 minutes” admiring the picture.
The former Beatle has had a long-term association with art, taking up painting as a hobby in the early 1980s.
McCartney and Ms Mills’ divorce battle is expected to go public next year after the pair failed to reach an agreement on a settlement.
Ms Mills is reported to want a considerable portion of McCartney’s estimated £825 million fortune.
