Jimi Hendrix is an icon and legendary guitarist in the hard rock music vein. Almost 53 years after his death on Sept. 18, 1970, Jimi is seen as one of the most influential rock guitarists in rock history. His showmanship as well as his technical prowess remains unmatched, and despite a mere five albums, his music is a staple in the world of rock and roll. Having performed myself in the "Little Wing Jamband" I created this textile art for Jimi.

I created this textile silk art painting as a dedication to Jimi Hendrix. This mixed media piece has been a work in progress over many years & it is finally completed! The painting is on 100% silk with a framed fabric trim, beadwork embellishments, silk appliques & metallic stitched embroidery. Notice the 6 guitar pins & 6 guitar strings stitched along the top of the piece. It's a work of love for Jimi!
