Custom Pottery

I had
the opportunity to do a custom gift for blues
musician Buddy Guy thanks to his personal security guards and friends Chuck
Lanza and Det. Pat Iorfino. Chuck had a vision and I took it and made it
work. It evolved into a tall wine goblet with Buddy’s favorite guitar
as the stem, with the neck of the guitar spiraling up to the rim. Chuck
and Pat presented the gift in Chicago at Buddy’s club Legends. He
liked it so much he used it and took it on stage with him. A year later, I had the rare opportunity, again thanks to Chuck and Pat, to meet Buddy in person back-stage at his show at B.B. King’s in NYC. There I presented a surprise second cup, more of a mug style, a gift from Slavin Studios, of which he also took on stage during the sold-out show. It was during the show that I realized what a blues legend he really is. |
