Art.

I like Dutch and Flemish painters--maybe because I’m a nerd.  Specifically I like Vermeer--maybe because of Colin Firth.  More likely because of Tracy Chevalier and her fantastic book Girl With a Pearl Earring.

A few days ago I found myself behind this monster.

And I just wonder what Johannes Vermeer would think about his name on a woodchipper.

Also, can I get a carwash please?

I wrote an analysis on a Vermeer painting when I was in college. It looked like the second one you posted, but he did a ton like that one.

Anyway, most boring paper ever. I was thrilled to be done with it.

Bring by some more of that Dr. Pepper and I will give you a free car wash coupon. (For real, a real coupon for a real car wash at a real car wash place!)
