BOB DYLAN is branching out into scrap metal - he has been commissioned to create art pieces with iron and lead.

The folk-rock icon admits his foray into art has been an unexpected success, but now he's inundated with offers to paint and create more than just music.
The Blowing In The Wind hitmaker says, "I've always drawn and painted but, up until recently, nobody's taken an interest. There's never been any support for it.
"I've had a museum exhibit, I have an association with a London gallery, and there will probably be another exhibition of new works in another European museum in 2010.
"Now I'm scrambling to keep up. I've been commissioned to do paintings and they want me to work with iron and lead."
