525,600 Minutes


Five Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand
Six Hundred Minutes
Five Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand
Moments so dear

Five Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand
Six Hundred Minutes
How Do You Measure - Measure A Year?
In Daylights - In Sunsets
In Midnights - In Cups Of Coffee
In Inches - In Miles
In Laughter - In Strife

In - Five Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand
Six Hundred Minutes
How Do You Measure
A Year In The Life?

How About Love?
How About Love?
How About Love?
Measure In Love

From “Seasons of Love” from the musical Rent

Today marks the one-year anniversary of Art Blog By Bob. That’s a lot of typing on my part and a lot of reading on your part. Thanks for listening. I’m absolutely thrilled with the direction this little venture has taken and enjoy every minute I spend writing and reading about but, most importantly, looking at art. Year Two holds new prospects for possible art print media for me, so onwards and upwards.

Many thanks to the beautiful and talented Annie, my wife, and to the precocious and precious Alex, our son, for putting up with me day in and day out, listening to me rave on about the latest discovery, and letting me steal away moments on the laptop when I should really be spending more time with them.

[Many thanks to Gerhard Richter for providing the perfect visual with his Candle (above, from 1982).]
