Description
So this has been one of the greater challenges in all of my making of the bad art; a fiddle. It's for my friend's band (both players play it interchangeably, regularly one plays accordian and the other guitar/banjo, they are very good), and they just said, "paint something" and so I did! I didn't mean for it to be so obscene (imagine it in playing position), but I like it that way.

I put a coat of gesso on the already laquered surface, then painted with acrylics, and will probably put laquer on top of that so that it won't chip. I'll probably paint the back and sides tomorrow.

(If the photo looks fuzzy, I'm sorry, the new camera likes to scare me by pretending it's the old new camera).
