All Things Art:
Five years ago I created this hand painted violin for an music organization in Tennessee. Time flies! and phone image taking technology sure has improved over that time!
Hand painted violin 2015
If I can ever find the backside image I will add it to this post.
Musical instruments are labor intensive to paint. A musician friend disassembled the strings for me to help me work unimpeded. Next came sanding. Creating a design. (This was while I was in an abstract expression period). Painting the design. (Front and back) The final step is clear coating the violin. It takes a while to create a custom work like this.
You can play this piece.
Note: I have one of these violins in stock and a stand available for purchase with the commission work. If you, or you know someone who might be interested in a an art work like this please share this post. allow 4-6 weeks for completion of a special order like this.
I am accepting commissions for 2020.
Peace & Stay Safe,
Valerie
