Art for shower room

easyrider · 9 Feb 2013 at 15:55

Need some colour to bring into the marble wall to ceiling and floor tiles.

Bought "Composition" by Jackson Pollock for the lounge and "The old Guitarist" by Picasso and I just saw them and liked them.

Pick me some ART for my shower room

Any input?

Order hentai manga books from Japan (something with tentacles), tear out pages, layer and stick them over an entire wall, clear coat it.

Oh for actual art? I'd need to see a pic of your shower room to make a decision, to you have any with the missus sudding herself?

You have the old guitarist in your lounge? Jesus.

I really like these heat reactive tiles.

That looks amazing.
I'd so do that if I was decorating a shower room.

I presume they are expensive though?

No not Jesus...

The old guitarist

Why? Art is subjective its hanging above a few of my guitars out of the collection...I just liked it.

It's a good interesting picture sure, but to have it hanging in your living room seems odd to me. When I look at it I just think about homeless people and feel bad about how privileged I am compared to some, not really the sort of thoughts I would want to impose on any guests I brought into my home, nor the sort of thoughts I would like to think about multiple times a day.

A print of the America Windows by Chagall would be nice. Well depending on what the shower room is actually like.

The guitarist is oblivious to his surroundings. He has an inner vision.Life is pain and pain is art. The picture personifies the loneliness of the creative in us all and especially me. This loneliness was Picasso's realisation that although he was an artist he relied upon others for his existence.

Poem extract wrote around this time:

The Man With the Blue Guitar
Wallace Stevens

The man bent over his guitar,
A shearsman of sorts. The day was green.

They said, “You have a blue guitar,
You do not play things as they are.”

The man replied, “Things as they are
Are changed upon the blue guitar.”
