  • i normally play the piano with industrial ear-protectors (I recommend same for my audience). This is the first time I have seen the player wearing nose + mouth protection. One can only recomend a diet less dependent on beans and cabbage.

  • @FlametopFred Good one... It was more a desire not to inhale the many layers of polish that had been applied to the piano over the past 30 years. I wore even more hardcore gear when coating my SF Heart with polyurethane late last year. :)

  • at 2:10 looked like it was going to veer off into the Partridge Family bus ... but turned out very cool :)

  • @FlametopFred :) Phew!

  • Awesome! What a unique idea ... love the imagination you expressed through this.

  • @artwithterryann Thanks much! Appreciate it! :)

  • May I know your first coat using a normal white paint?, your last finish do you apply lacquer or anything to protect the paint?

  • Dear sir,

  • I was watching this because I wanted to paint my piano white and then do then paint over it like the piano Coldplay uses in their recent concerts ,great job!

  • @MelissaAyr Thank you, Melissa! That would be great! :)

  • Indeed - It's the future of music and art - - merging industrial with pastels. I sanded down our old family piano that mom had painted Valiant green back in 1969. When I was 14 I was in my Lennon/White period so I sanded the thing down and painted flat white with black trim. Later a girlfriend took a belt sander to the poor old piano and sanded off the top mahogany laminate. That was the end of that relationship right there.

  • Cool Grand Piano!
