One more day to blog.
I'm excited to end this.
Especially on a leap year.
I played Scrabble today.
Thank you Mister Matt for finding it.
Currently I have five freakin' games going.
And I am currently winning our (me and Matt's) game (in your face... ooh!).
Currently listening to Krayzie Bone.
I fear there is way too much cursing going on.
That... and gunshots in between the songs.
And sirens... I hate that, esp while driving.
Tonight is dinner.
Friends and acquaintances are gathering at Primo's.
I shall have a tasty marg or prob a good beer.
And fajitas to celebrate dear Jeffrey's birthday!
I like these patterns:
I like this quote:
Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in. --Amy Lowell
And this is my response to February 14th:

And I just took a +9 lead. Face, what?
I had dinner last night with some good friends and saw this amazing print that had been reproduced into wall paper that was really amazing. Also, in their hallway they had some kind of embosed wall paper, or imprints running along the wall. I don't know how to describe it, and I didn't take pictures to show you. They are good friends, next time.
Matthewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
oh, and I think I disagree with your quote about art. I'm drafting a long post on my blog about it now. I do think there are definite elements of expression needed in art, but over the past years or so I've been noticing the need and direction of communication in art.
Last weekend I took a quick trip to Amsterdam and went to some galleries there, some contemporary galleries. I saw some nice works, really impressive. Then I journeyed to the Rijksmuseum (the one with Rembrandt's 'Night Watcher' painting) and was following the narrative of this historical art museum and really challenged by the dual roll the art served his culture. The paintings were of course cultural prizes, but they also documented and told the story of that time period. Thus communication in Rembrandt's eyes weighed heavier than expression. Of course, good art will take note of both, but I always want to through in that void of communication that art has such an ability to fill in our culture.
Which is why I believe in our age design has somewhat replaced art in that field, as it is more communicative.
I'm going to stop geeking out about art theory now. See you on the board!
