Inspirations by Paul Louis Villani

Inspirations

What started out as a tattoo design and then got slightly out of hand.
The top row between the Gretsch White Falcon and the Gibson Flying Vee
was going to be tattooed across my back between my shoulders.
Not anymore!!
Music, art and theatre have played large roles in my life, most
especially the guitar. The further I delved into who made an impression
on me the more complicated the image became!

    Now there’s a challenge to a tattoo artist LOL! Great image, and I get the impression that it could keep growing with the depth of your musical interests.

    This is fantastic – I can’t stop looking. The colours are beautiful and nostalgic. It could work in so many formats. A real challenge for a tattooist but I’d love to turn it into a doona cover so I could fall asleep next to all those great artists. It needs to be BIG to be able to see all the details and admire it further. I am new to Red Bubble – I love all your work, it is very inspiring.

  • Paul Louis Villani

    Paul Louis Vil..., about 1 year ago

    Now a doona cover is a spectacular idea!!!
    That’s a great comment, thanks so much Hazel!! :D:D:D

    this creation is more then the spoken word love it
    also the one thing that was my first focus was the girl of to the right third level with a red guitar and the other side a black one. it amazes me that my first focus would be to such little detail shows how perfect an image can be and the effect you get by them
    your work is outstanding
