Mixed-Media Beaded Mosaic Guitar and Mirror Art

This unique piece of outsider art features a wall-mounted mirror heavily embellished with a mixed-media mosaic. The focal point is a stylized electric guitar shape applied directly to the mirror's surface, constructed from a dense collection of glass beads, marbles, and faceted synthetic gems. The color palette is dominated by vibrant lime and forest greens, punctuated by secondary accents of amber, cobalt blue, and clear elements. The neck of the guitar is defined by straight rows of beads, while the body is a chaotic yet deliberate arrangement of round and teardrop-shaped components. The mirror frame is equally adorned with a thick border of similar beaded materials. Notable features include a red heart-shaped secondary mirror or frame element in the lower right and various found objects integrated into the design. The construction appears to be a hand-applied adhesive method, characteristic of late 20th to early 21st-century folk or visionary art. Condition-wise, the piece appears structurally intact, though there is a layer of surface dust and the inherent fragility of the beadwork suggests potential for minor piece loss. The quality is defined by its maximalist aesthetic and time-intensive labor rather than refined fine-art techniques, making it a distinctive example of contemporary vernacular craft.
