RIP Sid - he produced some iconic 'Potteries' paintings that I'm sure will hang in local galleries for generations to come

That's very sad news, I'm a big fan of his art, have several prints. Had he been ill or was it sudden? RIP Sid.

Oh no I'm genuinely saddened. Absolutely love his work. I have three of his paintings in my living room.
RIP Sid. You'll live on in your work.

I’ve never seen a better or warmer depiction of the Potteries. What a sad loss. RIP.

Just heard. I have 4 or 5 Stoke originals by Sid. Unfortunately, they are stuck in Stoke at the moment as I have not got round to sending them out to Bangkok. I love his social history stuff. Great ambassasdor for the city.

Oh no! This is terribly sad news, I have a copy of The Owd Stoke End on my office wall as a homage to my youth. A great loss but his legacy will live long through his genuine talent.

Sad News. No artist captured the spirit of the City or of our club better than he did. R.I.P. Sid.

Fantastic depictions of the area and particularly the fans making their pilgrimage to SCFC.
Sad news indeed and he'll be missed.
RIP Sid

Sad indeed. I’m looking at one of his originals on my wall now. He told me all about it and then signed it for me. Just an ordinary Stokie bloke. Condolences

RIP Sid Didn't know you.. but my sister is friend and neighbour. Amazing talent from what I believe was a part time self taught hobby. Lowryesque.

RIP Sid, wonderful, wonderful artist.
I have always found myself just staring at his work. Looking, making the story up in my head of all the wonderful people from that wonderful era. Even though I am too young for that time I get lost in the nostalgia, innocence and beauty that he portrays in each piece.
A picture that holds you, the way his does with me, is what art is all about. Each picture tells a thousand stories, and not necessarily those of the artist. Just fabulous.
Good night Sid and God bless.
Sent from my SM-G955F using proboards

Sad news indeed. I heard that he was ill recently but even so, I wasn't expecting this. The message displayed in his paintings were not only beautiful, they also showed memories of a lost era that was precious to many of us. Some were melancholy and others were pure fun. RIP Sid. OS. This was typical of Sid.
