I have long admired artists who can take a guitar and use it as a medium for their creativity. I had the good fortune to forge a continuing relationship with the well known street artist \"CRASH\". Crash had made a few art guitars for Eric Clapton and they were iconic from the start. I approached Crash, who with Eric's approval, began to create many amazing art guitars with me.<\/p>\n<p>We opened a street art gallery together in the South Bronx, <a title=\"Wallworks NY\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wallworksny.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wallworks NY<\/a>, and have showcased talented artists from all over the world. This led me to the idea of inviting some of our featured artists to create a unique collection of ART Guitars. Each guitar had to be individually engineered once the artwork was created and here are the results so far. I say that because there are more to come and the process continues from around the globe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>- Robert
