Quick one for you guys this month! Being a guitar addict, I was researching the guitars the Beatles played, and had a revelatory moment where I was thinking, how cool it was that at times specific guitars are as much a portrait of a famous musician as the musicians themselves. Next thing you know I was as eager to paint the guitars as I was the portrait. Maybe more eager. I think there are many folks (myself included) who would rather hang a surreal painting of an instrument than they would a literal portrait. It somehow allows the viewer to get inside the painting easier.

 

And the good news for a guitar addict, is that when I paint them, I feel less of a need to seek them out and buy them, lol.

 

Hope y’all dig! Guitar by me on this.
