I found an old ukulele at a swap meet and thought it'll be fun to paint. it was pretty beaten up with parts missing. I sanded it down and just started drawing in one corner, letting it take me where ever it would go. I soon ended up with this image. It was so much fun, I'd do it again.

Oooo , I LOVE IT! Very sweet.
Coool. Very nice. Can't wait for the next uke. Why the beaver?
This one's a beauty, Rich.
The meticulous layers of subtle symbolism within this masterpiece evoke a whimsical sense of serenity, cultivation, and the stroke of a total perv. I fell all warm & fuzzy inside. Nice one Rich!
I tryed very hard not to notice the symbolism. The piece is still very beautiful to me.
hey-
checked out the Gallery 1988 show. great stuff.
It would be really interesting to see a whole series of these ukuele paintings.
Awesome, Rich! Looks even better in person.
Rich, this is really cool. I love your choice of colors and how they go with the wood of the instrument. Fun subject matter. I really like her beaver too!

Angela, Thanks for stopping by the gallery. I actually thing about painting on a series of different instruments I found at the swap meet, i.e. a violin, tamborines, bongos, and stuff like that. seems fun.
hutch...thanks, buddy.
Greg, thanks for dropping by.
Does this have anything to do with the Winona's Big Brown Beaver by Primus?
