Roy Lichtenstein In The Laundry Room
Possibly one of the greatest forerunners of the Pop Art Movement, Roy Lichtenstein’s artwork features comic book style renditions done up in bold black lines and bright popping primary colors. His piece, “Washing Machine,” that seems to be ripped straight from the pages of a comic book, features a female hand shaking a yellow box of laundry detergent into the washing machine, it’ll help get the laundry done. For another classic Lichtenstein that would make a great addition to both a laundry room wall or anywhere else in the house, is Lichtenstein’s piece, “Thinking of Him” that features a woman weeping as she thinks of a distant man.

One of the most popular contributors to the pop art movement, Andy Warhol’s iconic artwork is recognizable from a mile away and is a remarkable addition to any bare kitchen wall, or really any wall in your house. Consider Warhol’s famous Pop Art rendition “Campbell’s Soup I (Tomato), 1968.” It’s a piece of art that screams in the kitchen and stands out with its pops of red and crisp white. If you’re looking for even more color, “Campbell’s Soup can, 1965 (pink & red)” or “Campbell’s Soup can, 1965 (green & purple)” add even more pops of color.
