The Grass Still Needs Cutting

It's a long slow climb to perfection, one step at a time. However what am I to do, the grass still needs cutting!

This interior scene shows a masterful sense of restraint: an extremely tight palette of essentially two colours, an uncluttered, highly geometric composition and a flat finish. Other than the finial, the guitar provides the only break from straight lines. There is a sense not only of stillness but also tension, created by the cut off door frame and window, and in the lack of visible furniture or personal touches in the spaces.
