Guitar 902 – Looking Swell
April 15, 2009
The parlor with the mahogany top is really shaping up well. I sat and pondered (yes, I ponder) last night and seriously questioned how all this came about. How did I get to the point where I could actually construct a thing as nice to look at as this. And, which will eventually sound (approximately) what I want it to sound like. My sister, Cyndy, embarked upon a serious artistic journey wherein she has produced art that surprised me. Surprised, because I never thought of us (myself and my sisters) as possessing quality artistic capabilities. But there she went, creating and putting out stuff that I had no clue where it came from. Whatever that muse was that was in my sister I think lives, partially, in me too. I don’t claim to have one tenth of the artistic talent of my sister, but I think whatever it was that gave her that gift, rubbed off on me.
So, here’s what I was looking at when I had this self indulgent moment of pride in what I’m creating.

I had no idea you thought that about me or my artsy fartsy journey. You come by it naturally—the inclination to create. I am thrilled you are exploring being a maker of things, and doing it so well.
