The Starry Night Acoustic Guitar 2017
This was another first- its my first foray into organic beaded shapes. I got really comfortable using geometry (diamonds and hexagons) to guide the design process. This is also the first Guitar I beaded. This translation of Van Gogh’s masterpiece “The Starry Night” was done by eye, I did not sketch out the shapes before starting, I was looking at a reference image while beading. The beadwork on this guitar covers all front facing surfaces and wraps around the edges .25 in.
