Stringed Instrument (Acrylic on Canvas)


Ok so hear me out: I’m being totally serious for once.
 
This, to me, looks very much like the kind of mass-produced, generic, noncommittal, soulless faux-painting one might easily be able to purchase at Target: the kind of painting one would buy simply in order to break up the space on an empty wall. Or (better!) if one were staging a home for sale and wanted a painting that wouldn’t offend anyone or that anyone would even give a first (let alone a second) thought to, such a painting as this would fit the bill precisely. 

That being the case, would our conclusion be that this painting is really good? Or that the “filler” paintings you see at Target are really bad?
