Covenant of Color Painted Guitar
This is my first contribution to paint party, you can check out others here!

This guitar was done for a charity event. It will be on display in a silent auction.
The proceeds will go towards a Music Therapy program at Childrens hospital. It's a non functioning guitar, done as an art piece only!
\ Sadly these photos don't come close to doing it justice.
The colors married so beautifully, under a high gloss sheen.
I'm so proud of the results.
It was a pleasure doing this project considering it was dropped in my lap last minute only because a two other artists dropped out! I started with one idea, but it took on a life of it's own. I have some old oak chairs in my home, that need enhancing with this colorful swirled process! Stay tuned!
When my mother was dying they had a music therapist in palliative care. I went from room to room harmonizing and entertaining with the lovely young musician. It was cathartic, and for a few moments took my mind off mothers pending demise! I imagine music therapy brings even more joy to children!
I was sad to see this piece go because I fell in love with it! If it doesn't get a high enough bid I'll buy it back myself! The time and love that went into it would be well worth it! If not I'll just do another for my wall!
For now I'll relinquish it! If I miss it too badly I can at least visit it
for the next three months!

Hi Giggles, glad to see you on PPF with all your wonderful work. It's beautiful and good luck with the auction. Yes, music is a wonderful therapy and how wonderful what you did at such a hard time. Take care and enjoy your weekend.
That is beautiful! Same as you - I loooove color, and you used color so brilliantly that it's a joy to see. No wonder you are having difficult time saying bye-bye to it.

Love the colors! My fav is the swirls of color in loose abandonment on the sides and back. don't know why you couldn't put strings and pegs on it and get it work again, couldn't you? {I don't know much about guitars though}
Happy PPF, a little late! Glad you joined this week. Your guitar looks awesome. Great job with it, and for such a good cause.
