Q What inspired you to use guitar picks to create art?

A My sister married a musician from a touring band called Blues Traveler. I saw a bunch of guitar picks that he had in his case and I realized that I could make mosaics of them. I had been doing mosaics with the kids up in Seattle.

Eleanor and I visit the our opening for Dominique Row House at the Charles W Thomas Salon on When the heck was it on may 2 2024.

We met Dominique, and she showed us around the studio. We also met the owner of the salon.

Can't remember her name now, off the top of my head, she this series was all about art of celebrities made from guitar picks.

00:38
And it was interesting. We saw Bob Marley and I think, ah, gosh, was elephants, gerald and the Grateful Dead.

00:48
And, um, what else it it was? It was, oh, there was Jimmy Hendrix, that's right.

00:56
We also met John Ryan, who's michael's hairdresser. And we met Lindsay Glazer, the owner of the of the salon.

01:05
And it was interesting. The prices, the pieces all went for, I think, wanna say, from seven to $15000, um.

01:15
And Dominique is her sister married. One of the band members of Blues Traveler.

01:24
Seemed like her work would be right at home at a studio in Las Vegas.

UM A very pop art ish and nifty. Um might add to a collection, but a little bit out of our price range, I would say, um, it was nice.
