It seems everyone from all disciplines and professions are inspired by musician muses. No matter what genre of music you listen to, you're bound to find one or two artists which you want to pay tribute to in your own unique way. Maybe it's their ability to connect with people, or maybe you just really like a particular artist, using musicians as muses has yielded some amazing artistic results and it seems the popularity of this pattern won't be ending any time soon.
Unsurprisingly, visual artists love using musician muses as subjects for their artwork. Still musicians inspire some nifty products such as Gwen Stefani dolls as well as musician-themed tea bags.
Musicians have also been used for not-so-flattering products, however, as they're a popular source of mocking Tumblr blogs and a few of them even have personal-themed love dolls.
