art forms
arge
All
art
is
but
imitation
of
nature.
Seneca
A guitar, made with bits and pieces
of wood, found at the time,
by his father.
Just goes to show,
art comes in many forms
and age is never a barrier
in producing it

Things in fact get better with age.
mary: Isn't it the truth?!
Loved that video... and I believe art is a forever thing though we may have to adjust our form as we go.
True folk art is all over isn't it. I am amazed how good the sound is. Thanks CM for sharing.
terrill: Yes indeed!
john: World famous that family. There's a Bear Family collection I keep looking for, but they're not cheap. It's a great audio history and btw, I have a friend who makes cigar box guitars and uses all sorts of recycled items = they all sound great!!! Thanks for stopping by!
Wow, what a cool guy! Thanks for posting I have not heard of Jimmy before and I loved the video...also what an amazing guitar!
Hi! C.M.,
So, true...So, true...Seneca's quote...Once again,
Thanks, for sharing the video too!
[Postscript: I plan to end you an email...later in the day.]
DeeDee ;-D
Loved watching that video. What a cool guy and his guitar is truly terrific!
outside: Thanks for stopping by!
dd: Thanks and for stopping by!
gabby: Amazing to see, I think this is from a documentary about him. Thanks for stopping by!
I do believe that nature is the basis for a lot of art forms-- and the medium should match the artist's expression-- not the other way around.
layers: Am learning that and am in total agreement.
