My wife, a talented (imo) part-time artist, usually does pet portraits, flowers, frogs, and abstract art by using oil pastels. I recently asked her to create an art piece with my Select as the subject. She took a few pictures and went to work. A couple of weeks passed, and she surprises me with this. I love it! It turned out great imo, but in hindsight, I would have put the original parchement pickguard on it for the artwork.

Nice- what medium is that? Oil pastel or oil paint? Looks like oil paint and brush.

I like it too. It's got a lot of warmth and a beautiful palette of colors.

Thanks, I will pass on the compliments.

She used pastels- not oil pastels though.

Thanks you...although some of that beautiful palette comes from the amazing Select flamed top. :mrgreen:

Thanks Brother Dave. It's the second one she's done for me, with this one being significantly better. She has a hard time with how precise things must be, which is why she chose an ultra close-up shot so she could focus on the colors rather than the dimensions. She would call me in as an advisor when working on a pickup angle.
