John Hurt at The UK premiere of 'Becoming Jane,' at the Odeon West End. London, England - 04.03.07

The Oscar-nominated actor, 67, has sold some of his paintings, but doesn't believe his work is good enough to warrant an exhibition.

He says, "I enjoy art a lot and have done for many years.

"I am not too sure I am ready to show any of my pieces - they are figurative art - I have been asked to in the past.

"Anyway I am not sure I would have enough for an art exhibition of my own - some pieces I have sol and given away but so many more I have destroyed through artistic temperament."
