Sharpie Art Customized Guitars – Vivian Xiao

May 2, 2013 by Rosie Bromberg Leave a Comment

Lord of the Rings Guitar Front
I’ve seen plenty of people decorate guitars using sharpies–usually it takes the form of signatures, doodles, or band logos. Vivian Xiao’s takes the combination of sharpies and guitars to a whole different level, creating highly detailed works of art. Like this guitar, inspired by the imagery in the Lord of the Rings films. The front of the guitar features full color illustrations, while the back features motifs and writing in gold. This isn’t the first guitar she’s done either, her Deviantart page features a Studio Ghibli inspired customization and a sea themed ukulele. And she’s only 16! You can see more on her Facebook or her Deviantart.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
