Guitar
My dad has always been one of my heroes. He is the reason I started creating art since he encouraged me to start creating it just months before he passed away from a long battle with cancer. He was a luthier and artist himself. Before he passed away he gave me the guitar that was used in this piece. It was an old Fender that he had shaved and colored. He called the guitar ‘The Clown Show’. I kept it for many years, not sure what to do with it. I finally came up with the idea to use it to make a piece of art. I first used record cover albums from many of his favorite bands to cover the canvas. I then cut out various lion heads to cover the neck and then used white roses from my garden and put them on it as well, as a symbol of my dad. I also added an ultrasound photo of my son Michael Jack since he was conceived about 6 months after my dad passed, and was in many ways a miracle. I then used acrylic resin to put it all together. When the resin dried I noticed that a tiny and perfect bee had landed on it, and was permanently stuck on the piece as well. I looked up the meaning of bees and they represent fertility and new life, which was so perfect. This piece will forever stay on my wall and is dedicated to my father.

She Is
This original piece was named SHE IS since to represent strength and growth. I used multiple layers to create her and there are multiple bright yellow circles that surround her. It is finished with a layer of acrylic lacquer that makes it shine. She is strong and powerful and represents the inner strength I wanted to channel when creating her. Her stoic face show she is serious yet strong and wise. Her finger on her mouth makes a mustache, which gives her a masculine strength and her voluptuous body gives her a feminine softness. She is sexy and strong. She is determined and capable. Her hair is partially painted with blue, glow in the dark highlights. She looks amazing in a black light. This piece will be the highlight of the room and will change from day to night. Make sure to use a black light to make her light up when it is dark. The piece is framed (not shown here) in black lacquer. I will sign it prior to shipping

This piece was originally painted with acrylic on lacquer. I used my fingers to paint her hair and used many of my favorite colors to create her beautiful flowing hair. The piece represents how vibrant and colorful we all are as humans. It celebrates the beautiful gift of life and specifically the vibrancy of inner strength. I printed this piece on metal, which give it a beautiful glossy vibe that will surely light up any room. I will sign it prior to shipment.

Jimi
I made this special original piece on the evening of a bright yellow full moon, which is why the background is painted yellow. I added an image of Jimi Hendrix, one of dad’s favorite guitarists as the focal point and then used a brush to add color and dimension. Jimi Henrix once said, “When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.” This piece represents the power of love and is sure to be the focal point of any room.
