So i have completely neglected this blog post, and i don't know why. With all of the other crazy things going on in my life now, i guess forgot to log on. I'm sort of mad at myself for letting this go. I think it was probably to my best interest, and at this point is pointless now. I still want to talk about what has been interesting me, and about the paintings i have painted lately. Last week i had to turn in an "adopt an object project," and i wrote mine over Jackson Pollock. I will admit that I waited until the last minute, like i do with so many things, but it worked out. I wasn't looking forward to writing or doing much research, so when i started cracking into the books i checked out, I was surprised to find that i enjoyed learning about Pollock. I could not put the book down, it was weird. I can't remember the name of the book exactly at the moment, I'm in the computer lab, but I think it was something like "Such Desperate Joy Imagining Jackson Pollock". No, that is what it is called. Its a good book, if your interested in Pollock, I recommend it.. It has everything about Jackson Pollock, about his life and his career, it even has a copy of his birth certificate, and social security card- which is kind of weird if you think about it.
Jackson Pollock is really an inspirational person, he broke the mold for artists of that time.
