I am allwas trying to do something new and different. These days i am finishing three guitars. One is order for one of my friend, second is designed like Moonshine Tennessie liquor and third is made from Jack Daniels tin.

When this will be done i will take a little break and start to paint one portrait on cancvas 100x150 cm size. Portrait of Keith Richards.  After that i will be back and started with guitars again :)

Thank you again for nice words.

 

Cheers,

 

Smoothead
