She is a good sculptor but listening to all these posts, Mick needs a new head. Keith looks great.
You could contact her about this: Amy Goodman (Sculptor & Portrait Artist) - [AmyGoodman.co.uk] , [Twitter.com] , [Facebook.com] .

Since the statues will already be installed in early 2023, it doesn't seem that the sculptor will make different versions from which one will then be selected.

Perhaps when they are finished, she could do a statue of Brian for Cheltenham town centre ?

But that statement sort-of implies that The Rolling Stones existed before Mick and Keith joined, no?

According to Brian's own words, The Stones was formed from the base of two bands: the one he was forming and the one Mick, Keith and Dick Taylor were coming from, Little Boy Blue And The Blues Boys from Dartford. Brian kicked out the blues purists lads (except Stu) from his band to get room for the Dartford guys (and Chuck Berry). Brian had initially a different idea of the band until he met Mick and Keith. Surely he was the leader, but the Dartford guys affected substantially to the nature of the band - not just accomplishing Brian's musical ideas.
Bill Wyman has a different story for sure, was not there when the band was formed, that is, when the crucial deal between Brian in one hand and Mick and Keith on the other was sealed. The Stones was born there.
