Hi from Nevada, I am here in Henderson for three days. Wonder Woman invited Carole, Cheryl and I for a quick Mother-Daughter trip. Cheryl drove, making a four hour drive, counting a food stop, so enjoyable.

Tuesday, we went to Valley of Fire State Park.





Carole, Cheryl, me, Wonder Woman.


Faces, images everywhere within the rock formations.

Photos don't do the colors and amazing shapes justice.



I will include more from our hours at Valley of Fire State Park in tomorrow's Day 4204 blog. It really was amazing.




Jackson Pollock

American, 1912-1956

More than just a painter, Jackson Pollock is an American cultural icon. Widely known for his “drip painting” technique, Pollock stood at the forefront of Abstract Expressionism, to the point that his name has become nearly synonymous with the movement. He was deeply respected by his contemporaries, and Pollock’s paintings, prints and other art, as well as his commitment to the work, influenced artists around the world.

When you click on the link, you will open to a blank white screen. Move your cursor anyway or anywhere you want, it will draw what you draw, it changes ink color whenever it wants. If you stay in one place it will make a big blob, and bigger the longer you are inactive. When you want to start over, click on the space bar and you are back to a white screen. Enjoy!
