Taylor, Texas

This is it... I think that I am pretty close to the original sketch... i had a lot of fun being part of this project. #nickramos #graphismo #paintedpiano #taylortx #mainstreettaylor #chamberofcommerce #taylortxchamber #downtowntaylor

Are you tired of piano posts yet? Here’s the final product.... it needed some pupils, so it could actually see. #nickramos #graphismo #paintedpiano #downtowntaylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #taylortx #taylortxchamber #musiconthestreets

Some local girls try out the piano... i am so impressed by how the girl on the right is balancing herself on her skateboard. #nickramos #graphismo #paintedpianos #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas

Here’s the piano almost done, but missing his pupils... the wind was impossible, but still turned out pretty close to the sketch. #nickramos #graphismo #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #downtowntaylor #taylorchamberofcommerce #paintedpiano #paintedpianos

Eyeballs so that you can see better. #nickramos #graphismo #taylortx #paintedpianos #paintedpiano #mainstreettaylortexas

More of the progress... tedious, but lots of fun #graphismo #nickramos #taylortx #mainstreettaylor #downtowntaylor #paintedpiano #paintedpianos #musiconthestreets

The biggest challenge of bringing this project to reality was the wind factor.... it literally blew the paint off the paintbrush. But I still had fun! #graphismo #nickramos #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #downtowntaylor #paintedpiano #paintedpianos #publicart #musiconthestreets #artinstallation

A little hair dye job... and a little foundation for the skin. The biggest challenge for this project was the insane wind. #graphismo #nickramos #paintedpiano #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #downtowntaylor

During the creative process, i was sent this picture. I am not sure if this is a question of who wore it better.... but this little princess definitely outshines my creation. #graphismo #nickramos #whoworeitbetter #littleprincess #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #taylortxchamber #paintedpiano #paintedpianos #publicart #artinstallation

Putting the piano together... adding all of the appendages... the hands with the headphones, the hair, the glasses and the cool glasses. #nickramos #graphismo #taylortexas #mainstreettaylortexas #downtowntaylortx #taylortxchamber #paintedpiano #pianoproject #foureyes #artinstallation

When my piano appendages arrived... and I was able to start putting everything together... I had a vision! #nickramos #pianoproject #paintedpiano #graphismo #publicart #taylortx #taylortxchamber #mainstreettaylortexas

I think that painting a piano can take many approaches, but I would like to create something that allows or invites the public to interact with them. These are going to be sitting on sidewalks and I would like to make them stop and take notice... so never having done this, I excited and worry about exactly I can do. One thing is for sure... I want to have fun! I so need some fun! #graphismo #nickramos #taylortx #mainstreetusa #mainstreettaylortexas #taylortxchamber #texasbeercompany #paintedpiano #paintedpianoproject

My apologies for being MIA... but I had broken the screen of my phone and could not use it properly... which included posting on #instagram. I am currently working on some sketches for the #paintedpianoproject that is happening in downtown #taylortx this month. One of the things that I am thinking to do is to add wood cut puts to the piano. I would love to hear your input as I share them. Thanks! #graphismo #nickramos #mainstreetusa #mainstreettaylortexas #paintedpianos #playagainsam #publicart

Howdy... I am sorry for being MIA, but my phone screen was broken and causing the phone mot to work properly... I am currently working on a #paintedpianoproject that’s happening in Taylor,TX this month... I am thinking of adding wood cut outs to the piano, in order to change it’s shape. So, I’ll be sharing some sketches here... so feel free to give me some feedback. #nickramos #graphismo #paintedpiano #taylortx #mainstreettaylortexas #taylortxchamber
