Bijou Guitar

The Bijou Guitar (Bijou = jewel) is a project that I've wanted to do for some time.  I used stained glass, beads and even a rusty washer I found out hiking.  The red glass was something I found at a bottom of a bin at a garage sale (it has become a rarity in this color!). I often wondered how I would ever use it because of it's thickness; it found a home!  Many artists don't bother with the sides or back when they mosaic a guitar, but I wanted her to look beautiful from every direction. Does music give my heart wings? Yes, it always has.
