Folk legend Bob Dylan has taken up a new job -- he has been commissioned to create art pieces with iron and lead.

 

The singer well known for his hit number "Blowin' in the Wind" admits his foray into art has been an unexpected success, but now he is inundated with offers to paint and create.

 

"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," he said.

 

"Now I'm scrambling to keep up. I've been commissioned to do paintings and they want me to work with iron and lead," he added.
