Still Life with Stringed Instruments 2018

"Still Life with Stringed Instruments" is a 2018 painting by American artist Russ Warren. The work features two stringed instruments, a yellow lute and a cream-colored guitar, rendered in bold, flat colors against a background of geometric shapes and vibrant hues. The use of simple forms and contrasting colors emphasizes the playfulness and abstract qualities of this modern still life. The artwork is visually engaging for its clear, geometric forms and use of complementary colors, reminiscent of the style of Pablo Picasso.
