Julia Warhola and son Andy
In 1952 Warhol’s mother left Pittsburgh and moved in with him at his NYC apartment. She wasn’t much of a housekeeper and Andy was a pack-rat so the apartment became piled with junk. They also had a dozen or more Siamese cats. His mother told friends she was staying until Andy met a nice girl and got married.  [i]

Lovely.

dodging responsibility, love?: All Time Best Jean Claude Van Damme Movies

jacobmetcalf:

No, this isn’t a mistake. There’s no reason to mistrust your eyes. You read it right. Jean Claude Van Damme takes the brunt of your distaste in stride. Few know that over a decade ago, the man was honing his action adventure art films with pride. What follows is the definitive guide.

Jacob, you nailed it. I have had this same conversation 2 times in the last two weeks. I am a little disappointed by the lack of the incredibly homoerotic thriller ‘Desert Heat’ on this list though.

"I am doubtful of any talent, so whatever I choose to be, will be accomplished only by long study and work. I fear it will be forced and mechanical. Architecture interests me, but not in the sense painting and sculpturing does… As to what I would like to be, it is difficult to say. An artist of some kind. If nothing else I shall always study the Arts. People have always frightened and bored me, consequently I have been within my own shell."

Jackson Pollock at age 17 in a letter to his brothers Charles and Frank. [l] (via artistandstudio)

So beautiful, that last one especially. I have never experimented with tempera but this makes a very sound argument in favor of the medium.
