About Blues Guitar

A single acoustic guitar fills the tall narrow canvas, split down its length into two halves: the lower bout on the left is cobalt blue, while the body and upper shoulder on the right are warm tan with visible grain-like streaks. Black and white chequer bars run along the fretboard and repeat as a border of ochre, black and white squares down both edges. The soundhole is a blue disc crossed by pale vertical stripes, and four long strings run the full height to black tuning dots at the top.

The surface reads flat and graphic, with dry, streaked colour and hard-edged shapes rather than shading. A small patch of silver-grey foil-like colour sits near the base, below the bridge. Overall it has the stripped-back, rhythmic feel of early modernist still life, where the instrument is broken into blocks and stripes rather than drawn realistically.

The tall narrow shape suits a slim wall between doorways, a stairwell, or the space beside a bookcase. It works in a music room, home office or gentleman's room, and pairs with tan leather, walnut timber and navy upholstery. Hang it above a record player or console for an obvious link to the subject.
