Guitar or Musical Styled Paintings and Wall Art?

Bellycaster

Can anyone recommend anywhere online or otherwise where I can get some tasteful art as described in the title? I can only think of Amazon, but some of you may have bought stuff like this before from specialist sites.

Preferably not Stencil things or Wire shaped instruments to hang. I prefer paintings.

You can show off your Musical Wall Art if you like.

Thank you.

Hang your guitars on the wall?

Are they yours? Who's the artist

bazxkr

Yes, both are mine. Artist is David Lozeau. He did a limited run of 5 different themed strats with Fender (IIRC 2015)

I got these 2 then ran of money LOL The wall art is actually metal plate with the enamel image. You can still buy these and other examples of his work. If you go on YT you can watch a fascinating time lapse video of Lozeau painting the Tree of Life image (the one on the right). Very talented artist that suits my quirky sense of humour haha

You see the size of the wall pic from scaling from the strat headstock just below. Think was only about £25. Has the 4 corner holes pre drilled so easy to mount. It is glossy not matt & I love it. But not for everyone that's for sure

They're pretty cool. Were the strats expensive if you don't mind me asking? Was it an actual fender collaboration or unofficial?

bazxkr

Actual Fender. Basically a made in mexico standard strat with the artwork

This will prob interest you, think they were about £699 RRP here at the time

You do see them come up from time ot time altho I've only ever seen the voodoo (purple one) come up once in 3 years or so

You can really appreciate the finish on the voodoo graphic strat here, I want to do the black out hardware too but no time lately

There's a Paul Klee group on FB which I'm very grateful to for bumping me across the unseen.

Hope you can grab some ideas from this.

Allposters.co.uk - put guitar in their search box and it comes up with a little over a thousand items. I’ve got a couple of their (framed) pictures and the quality is excellent.

They're very interesting and definitely something different. Would you want to try and complete the set?

Good shout Allposters, they have pretty much anything you could want on any subject

If I had money to burn yeh I'd like to get the set. But realistically, I like the rose tattoo and would pick one up if it came along at the right price but not a great lover of the the sacred heart and dragon so guess not gonna happen

One guy modded the tree of life to be full image no pickguard...I like that even more

I also like the Fender/Gibson/Gretsch tin signs that are 'antiqued' they look good on the man cave wall surrounding your gear

I can recommend an artist that paints bands and musicians, with guitars featuring in many - Pete Marsh Art:

Thanks for all the ideas so far.

@Bellycaster ;I do a few bits like this for fun in my spare time. Mostly graphics/photography led stuff a bit like my avatar, usually only for mates, small bands etc. If you had something in mind I may be able to help, drop me a PM if you want any more info 


@bazxkr Those guitars are stunning mate

This type of thing maybe? Might be a bit subtle if you want to focus more on guitar  - we’ve got a similar one above the piano in the front room and we’ve been told by other people it looks good. (Obviously we think it does).

• The key signature is blx.
• quavers have solid heads not hollow.
• there's a crotchet the wrong way round
• there's no time signature (but it could be 19/16)

I wouldn't have that in my house

Bellycaster

Thanks @terada I'm not sure exactly what I want. I wanted to just browse through stuff until something stood out.

I'm not into the old Guitars hanging on the wall @Phil_aka_Pip ;

Much also depends on where in the house you intend to display, in a man cave or music room you have more licence to play than perhaps if on general display in the lounge or dining room where more conservatism is maybe needed

Abstract Phil. I’m musically illiterate so it cannot and will not ever bother me. I can see why it might be an issue for some though.

The one we have is probably littered with even more inaccuracies.
