Painted Guitars

So a friend of mine owns this coffee shop(the Corona Cafe). He had some small space left after he hung up some photos of a local artist and asked me if I wanted to put a couple of pieces up.

I had a couple of busted up guitars (although I actually think the electronics are still good) sitting in the garage, so I thought I should paint them up and hang those. Here was the result of that experiment.
