The Fleur de Fiddle plant...seed pods ripening...plate 4


*Having found and photographed many odd intrument fragments I hope to build a few more 'botanical specimens' with them in the future...one sad, sweet and long silent banjo uke, a slide or two of trombones, a dozen distressed drum skins, a single cymbal, an eviscerated piano and a maw full of mouth harps among others. 


Desperados,  disenchanted, disgraced and discarded guitars, stagger into the depot in need of miraculous resuscitation or compassionate burial...Fortunately our annual  Blues, Where ART thou? Art exhibit during the May Blues Workshop almost always has at least one brilliantly recreated guitar on display.
