Description: Submitted for your approval--and highest bid, another outstanding gem from Michele's Pop Culture series of fine art: One (1) original folk art piece done with acrylics on a vintage full-sized tambourine featuring pop singer, Stevie Nicks in profile, by northern California artist, Michele de Onate. Michele's eclectic artistic stylings are on full display here with her latest creation, which she titles simply "Gypsy" This lovely item has been thoroughly hand-painted by one of the west coast's most esteemed talents. No patterns or stencils were used, just the meticulous brush strokes of Michele. Completely covered with two coats of spray sealant to ensure a long life, it features a delightful multi-colored depiction of the popular music artist in profile, on a round wooden tambourine, fully playable. It would make a wonderful addition to any music-themed collector's interior decor, or even accentuate your own menagerie of fine folk art. Display the piece by itself or in a room with your favorite collection of hand-painted art of a similar design, or feature it at your next party. Observe the fine detail work of Michele's latest creation and you will witness the whimsical mood she evokes in this wonderfully lovely piece. NOTE: The instrument is slightly warped, when viewed from the side, which does not affect its aesthetic qualities as an art display. While fully playable, item is intended for display purposes.The solid musical instrument itself was manufactured in the 1980s and had been lightly used, before being recently re-purposed by the artist. The piece measures a full 10 1/2 inches in diameter by 2 inches deep. Featured artwork is in Mint Condition, having been recently completed, dated and hand signed by the artist. The fine artistic detail can be seen in the accompanying photos. Observe the alkaline battery in one image for size comparison purposes.
