I’m The Violin Painter Who Spends Over 3 Weeks Illustrating Each One
Hello, my name is Leonardo Frigo and I am a London-based artist. I illustrate biographies and stories on musical instruments such as violins and cellos. My work incorporates symbols, pattern and embedded text which allows the audience to engage with the instruments in a unique way.
My art’s objective is to graphically represent a story, an event or a biography. I like to think that my musical instruments can be read like books. I love music and musical instruments, I spend more than 3 weeks to finish a violin.

I play violin and I am amazed. I would love to buy one of those in future. It's just so beautiful.

Can they still be played? Sometimes paint messes with the sound...

Great work! Love the detail. The characters hidden in a few of these add a lot of depth to these illustrations. It's awesome to see someone spending real time on their craft. I feel like that's increasingly rare these days.

His site is at http://www.leonardofrigo.com/. No prices listed for violins, but a violin bridge that you can literally buy for $0.99 USD is listed for $25 once he has doodled on it.

I saw his website too and he has seven violins with "seven deadly sins" theme. Really cool
