ART | And The ABSURD


SELLING FOR $70,000

Hobbyist and full-time artists are in an argument pool about how paintings are judged. Of course, the price of art dangles along with it. 
Are we suppose to judge art and find a price that will not make us think or say the word "ridiculous"? 
Are we like trees just pliable to how the wind blows... like oh, he is famous and rich ... I will like his art even others think a kinder can draw and paint better?
Are we just going to be a bystander... letting other people strike each other with pointy remarks?

When I saw Jean-Michel Basquiat painting sold for more than a million, I was like ... geez! I don't even know this guy, never heard of him. BUT.... one of his paintings caught my attention.

Though most of his paintings look like a nursery scribble to me, there's one thing he is expressing here. 

"I don’t listen to what art critics say. I don’t know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is."

That made him silly rich!

By the Power of Baking Soda

! I grew my first batch of Daikon radishes because it is hard to find where I live now. I was happy it went well until tiny bugs pester it and the leaves got holes and white spots. So, I read a few articles about it but I do not want to spray anything chemical on my veggies. I want it organic as possible. I have seen some articles about baking soda and how it fights fungus and bugs in plants and promote photosynthesis in plants as well. I was a bit skeptic but I have to save my Daikon radish. We use these types of radish for our " Pork Sinigang", an Asian dish that is tamarind base soup that we eat with rice. I could find Daikon radish so we decided to plant some. So, I mixed 1 teaspoon of baking soda ( the one you used for making cookies) and 1 Liter of water. Shake the bottle so the soda particles will liquefy... In my mind, this is suicidal for your radish but I have to take the risk to save them. WOW!!! The leaves are greener and the white fungus thing went away...

Emotional Color Flowers Bring

Image
What is behind flowers that can make anyone smile back at you when giving it to them? What is behind flower power or what is the emotional impact of flowers? Serotonin is a hormone in the brain that makes happy thoughts. When you give flowers to anyone, it instantly generates smiles. Studies have shown that not only women smile when they receive flowers but men as well. Sadly, men don't often receive flowers but most of the time, flowers are used by men as a prime shield especially when they've been a knucklehead and would try to avoid an angry wife. Flowers come in a wide variety of colors. Red makes you excited, blue: relaxing, orange: friendly, pink: youthful, purple: creative, green: soothes the eyes, and white makes you feel clean and fresh. Two colors caught my attention and stirred up some funny thoughts. One is black that gives a feeling of seriousness, mystery, and death... mmm, sounds like a great gift to a boss who won't give you a raise. hahaha Yellow i...
