The art history journey continues and our journey with Jackson Pollock begins! This series is going to be a complete rollercoaster.
It begins with annoying naming conventions, separating your children into teams so they'll hate each other, tuberculosis, and withholding pie (aka love) to let people know you're mad.
This story forces me to rant about Daniel Day Lewis, above-ground pools, and the not-so-cool ways America settled the West. I also discovered that I may have an unhealthy fear of horses.
There's precious little art or art history in this episode. It's mostly death, mostly from tuberculosis.
Saddle up!

In a rollercoaster of an episode, we learn about mural negotiations, chicken salad sandwiches that curb masturbation, and which type of gringo is worst. Along the way, we’ll figure out which type o...
