I can honestly say I'm not a big art fan. Graffiti is cool if its actually something artistic and not just obnoxious gang tagging but other then that there is very little art pieces I enjoy. Except for Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. More than likely your pretty much guranteed to have seen it before(especially if you look at the top of this post), so there's not a big need for me to explain what it looks like to you then. So i should just get on to why I like it. I like it because it's...gloomy and dark. Full of sadness and isolation. For me it conjures up images of nights out at Starbucks just hanging out, drinking a coffee, thoughts of my own and what-not. Each patron in that diner wheather there with someone or not is off on their own. They're all in their own little worlds with nothing around them to bring them out of it. Then there's outside the diner, where nothing seems to be happining, no street lights, no open stores, nada. It brings about those times at around 3am when you can be driving about yet all the streets are empty and quiet, not a soul in sight, and its weird and quiet. That last person on earth vibe.
Ok I'm done, I hope this was coherrant because sometimes when I talk and type thoughts usually just come spilling out my head in a strange order.
