'Penny People' on the Underground

Manx artist chosen for Tube exhibition

Artwork from a Manx painter is set to feature on a billboard in the London Undergound.

'The Penny People' by Ballaugh-based Frank Crompton has been selected by Art Below, an initiative which replaces ad-space on the Tube with art.

Mr Crompton's piece will be on display at Regent's Park Station on the Bakerloo line, from 24 September for a month.

It is expected 10,000 people a day will see his work.
