"This is a tribute to Texas musicians, be they classical, symphonic, rock, blues, jazz, or country.  Texas is the land of ZZ Top, Robert Johnson, and Willie Nelson.  There is something about Southern music that is unique even if we are admiring it and just listening rather than joining in to play.  I hope you enjoy this acoustic guitar painting honoring Texas music through the eyes of the Texas flag.

Like the flag of the United States, the blue stands for loyalty, the white represents strength, and the red is for bravery.  Enjoy this art and purchase for yourself or send it as a present to a homesick Texan.  You can always tell who those people are.  A displaced Texan's chin hits the ground when they walk and they get sentimental and cry when they hear news about Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman or the Rose Bowel.  They also whimper at the site of a Blue Bonnet, the State flower. I've got a couple of Blue Bonnet paintintgs too if you think that will help a lost Texan."
