This podcast explores questions related to why we like some art works but not others and the role our cultural background plays

The well known musician, Paul McCartney, made some very nice visual art paintings. Color seems to be a big part of his work. The colors give you a feel as to the emotion attached to it.

I find it very interesting that such a talented singer is also such a talented artist. The way he uses colors to express the emotions shows a lot about his artistic style.

i like the different colors he used to make the design

 This last week I discussed George Sheehan's theory of defense and character in conjunction with The Odyssey , Homer's classic. Today I'd like to extend that discussion with another book on defense, Chad Harbach's THE ART OF FIELDING . Baseball has its human universals, and the best baseball novelists sometimes use classic novels as referents to anchor their works.

John Mellencamp's visual art website. Mellencamp developed a style that fuses the aesthetic approaches of the German expressionists Max Beckmann and Otto Dix with that of American neo-expressionists like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Francesco Clemente. His oil paintings combine portraits of everyday Americans with a cast of universally recognized symbols-hearts, guitars, targets, and crowns-and words such as "dreams," "blues," and "freedom."

Will, are you the next art writer for City Newspaper or did you borrow some ideas (heavily ahem) from your source? Please cite your sources or give us your own observations. If this is your writing, you need to teach me what Neo-expressionism means. I have always wondered. Just kidding.

I was very impressed with the way the paintings made me think. They're very satisfying to look at and It was like the paintings were whispering those emotions until I really saw. Then it was like they were being told to me clearly.
