Jo observed that within a few guitars I moved from solid colour to painting a scene this week
After writing a list of possible subject matter I remembered the murray cod exhibition drafts were among the pile of laminated rubbish I've been cutting into stencils, so I worked with those images.
It's also wonderful to observe how the paint layers blend when the oil soaks into the wood.
The guitar bodies are cheap from China and, although described as maple or sycamore, commentators described it as paulownia.
This wood is very light and, while not traditional material for telecasters, is resonant when playing unplugged.
