Mike Lipe has close ties to Tahiti and that connection was reflected in this artwork simply done with Liquitex black acrylics on a beautiful wood finish.
Mike Lipe and Pamelina H. have known each other and worked together since the early 1990's, when Mike Lipe was the Guitar Doctor. They worked together through the Ibanez years and now are collaborating on original guitars.
