Very nice work Ken, particularly like the decoration at the top of the back - looks like something from a classical temple or a 14th century manuscript - great!

You could go to battle with that ax, you can't lose when the arch angel Michael has your back! Nice job!

I believe they're Ken's original paintings.

Yes, I've been a painter longer than I've been a mandolin maker.

The painting are great, but combined with the carvings makes your mandolins very classy works of art as well as great mandolins. Love what you do Ken!

They are original paintings. I have one on my Silver Angel as well, and having visited Ken at his home, his house is also full of world-class original art by Ken. That's a beauty Ken!

They sure are pretty! I don't think anyone else does that, Ken is a real class act!

Very,very nice work indeed Ken.The carving especially looks sort of 'ancient'. Did you leave the back wood in that area slightly thicker to allow for the carving,or is the neck block taking the strain ?,

no, that area is plenty thick enough for the carving already, probably helps the sound if anything. THanks,
