McGuire, the artist. Turns out he's too shy to promote his own work, so here I am to do it for him. Everything he does is artistic, even the yards - they're gorgeous. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dhE3-3_zx3E/SsKVWSbpaMI/AAAAAAAAAA4/f7rrMI73ZjM/s1600-h/Mothers+Day+at+Vic+%26+Bonnies+010.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" iq="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dhE3-3_zx3E/SsKVWSbpaMI/AAAAAAAAAA4/f7rrMI73ZjM/s320/Mothers+Day+at+Vic+%26+Bonnies+010.jpg" /></span></a><br />
</div><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What he's done most of his life is pen and ink drawings, mostly of wildlife, but he ventures out sometimes - did some antique planes, a firetruck.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dhE3-3_zx3E/SsSQ7OglbQI/AAAAAAAAABY/loeNGMonAiI/s1600-h/eaglebigwithcopyright.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" iq="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dhE3-3_zx3E/SsSQ7OglbQI/AAAAAAAAABY/loeNGMonAiI/s320/eaglebigwithcopyright.jpg" /></a><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He makes the frames too - this one is walnut with the bark still on.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then he decided to paint murals on walls - one was over a hundred feet long. He found he had a knack for creating bonsai. Then came tattoos - OMG the second that needle touched the skin and the ink spread I swore there was no way - but when he wiped it off, it was like he was born to do them....magnificent!</span><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Victor does remodeling for a living. All of that is done with an artistic flair also. </span><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">And now? Now he is carefully, painstakingly handcrafting electric guitars with one-piece bodies. He treats the wood but leaves it natural - no paint, no lacquer. Here's one:</span><br />
