►LIVE EDGE WOOD: The natural edges, wavy grain lines, quilting, unique colors, knots and bark inclusions are the characteristics that define live edge wood. Each wood slab has specific feature and will vary from log to log milled. Each live edge desert hardwood is uniquely hand-crafted and custom designed from weathered-down trees around metropolitan Phoenix areas. By acquiring these logs, it allows me to create 100% sustainable, re-purposed live edge wood art designs. Handmade in North Peoria, Arizona. ►GUITAR BODY and NECK: Handcrafted two pieces of desert hardwood are glued together and hand cut to shape of Fender Stratocaster body. The neck is one solid mesquite wood cut to full size specification. No CNC machine was used to create this art. ►FRACTAL ART: A process of applying 20,000 volts of electricity to the wood surface recreating a lightning strike in slow motion as well as unique abstract figures, tree and vein like shapes. ►EPOXY COLORS: ANGEL WHITE, AQUA MARINE, ARIZONA GOLD, ARMY GREEN, BLACK, CARDINAL METALLIC, CARIBBEAN BLUE, DESERT COPPER, EMERALD METALLIC, GOLDEN YELLOW, GRAY METALLIC, HOT PINK, HUNTER GREEN, ORANGE, PEARL WHITE, PURPLE METALLIC, RED, SKY BLUE, TEAL METALLIC, TURQUOISE BLUE ►OIL FINISH: Hand rubbed finish using OLD MASTERS gel polyurethane clear satin oil. It brings out the natural beauty of wooden surfaces; durable coating for use on wood surfaces and contains ultraviolet absorbers for advanced sun protection. ►ABOUT THE ARTIST: Garie Chavez [Artist & Musician] – I have been designing live edge wood art since 2015.
