The World Needs More Art

I don't care how much art there is in the world, there needs to be more. Everyone should create a piece of art at least once a week. Paint, write, photograph, braid, I don't care. But do it with an artful purpose. Come on world, let's make more art. It's good for the soul. You CAN'T get bored when you're making art. Making art is a growthful (<-- is making up words art? maybe.) experience. And looking at art makes life happier too.

Another season has come and gone, so here's another slide show of what I saw this year. A little taste of winter in the Garden State and the Empire State. Follow the link and please enjoy.

I do love winter, but I am also glad to see it go. Spring is here and I am filled with joy and rebirth.

Haircut-A-Thon and Batman

I have no idea what a HairCut-A-Thon looks like. I imagine it's probably a bunch of people armed with scissors trapped in a room with Bigfoot and no one is allowed to leave until someone wins. But as exciting as a gladiatorial battle between Bigfoot and hair stylists sounds, this was not even the most exciting poster on campus.Who doesn't love comic books AND fashion!?! Everyone who loves comic books is definitely into fashion and the vice versa is even MORE true. Seriously though, how often do the fashion club, the comic book club, and Hillel, the foundation for Jewish campus life, team up?? When they do, you know it's gotta be good!Paul Pope is an inspired comic book writer/artist who draws with a calming madness. Born in some future dystopia, he fortuitously fell through a crack in space-time and now celebrates his freedom by drawing comic books and making jeans and hoodies. Today's advice: READ BATMAN: YEAR 100.
