Things and stuff...

Google is pretty cool, sometimes.  This is their logo for today, January 28th - Jackson Pollock’s birthday.

I saw a Pollock at the Whitney last month, and I was struck by how gritty and just plain old real it was.  I can’t really explain it - violent and messy and just very human.  It was one of those moments when I surprised myself, remembering that something as simple as standing in front of a painting can make you feel so alive.
