THERE was never any doubt about the talent of master art forger Shaun Greenhalgh who knocked out masterpieces in the garden shed of his Bromley Cross home.

Now, having served four years in prison, he has been given the go-ahead within the law to sell work in the style of revered artist L S Lowry - as opposed to previously selling copies purporting to be by the artist himself.

Personally, I wish him well. Skill is to be admired and if he can make a living from creating works of art by Shaun Greenhalgh then he deserves to do well today.
