"I don't know how to organize thoughts. I don't know how to have thoughts."

While walking though the Walker i picked Jasper Johns Fool's House, painted in 1962. It is oil on canvas with objects, and it is 72 x 36 in. The objects on it are a broom, a towel, a cup hanging on a hook, and a canvas stretcher. Johns also labeled everything with a marker.
I picked this one because i liked the sweeping marks in the paint from the broom. And because of the colors. This piece was shown and talked about a lot in my art history class. So it was pretty cool to see something like that in real life.
