Portrait of Edgar Allan Poe

Drawing by Henri Matisse

Did you know that Matisse admired the work of American horror poet Edgar Allan Poe? Apparently the French were obsessed with his work.

“I was worth over $1,000,000 when I was 23, and over $10,000,000 when I was 24, and over $100,000,000 when I was 25, and it wasn’t that important because I never did it for the money.”

Bye Steve!

"I'm the type who'd be happy not going anywhere as long as I was sure I knew exactly what was happening at the places I wasn't going to. I'm the type who'd like to sit home and watch every party that I'm invited to on a monitor in my bedroom."

Warhol talks about

Facebook before it existed.

This Andy Warhol quote is amazing. He pretty much wanted social media before it even existed. He would be posting his pictures from last night and sharing it with his social network right now if he lived today.

Does Rick Perry follow the call of a higher power or satanic dark power?

My first experience with the product was just amazing. First of all the scent of the product is just so inviting, with a delicious strawberry smell. Then comes the best part. The texture. The intimate shaving cream's texture is incredible. It's very light in contrary to other shaving creams where the foam is so thick that once you apply it on your skin, you have the sensation of shaving the foam instead of the hair. With BYB intimate shaving cream, even a little amount of the shaving cream goes a long way on your skin. 

While shaving, we feel the blade slides easily on the skin. As for the end results, I was astonished. After BYB, my skin felt unbelievably smooth and silky. Although, Below Your Belt is a shaving cream designed for intimate use, you can definitely used it on any part of your body. The BYB intimate shaving cream, also comes with an after shave that smells as wonderful as the shaving cream. The after shave will revive your skin and enhances all the wonderful feelings you experienced while shaving. 

I would say that your shower is not complete without the BYB products. The experience is both fun and addictive, and it makes you look forward to shaving. I would definitely recommend it to every woman.

Martin Luther King

memorial is here.

A dream comes true as Washington tourists get first glimpse of Martin Luther King memorial

His statue has been 25 years in the making and is set to be unveiled on the very site where his most famous words inspired generations of Americans.

Now the long-awaited statue of Martin Luther King Jr has finally been revealed on the National Mall in Washington, DC, where the civil rights leader made his iconic 'I Have a Dream' address.

The giant 30ft statue - the first on the Mall to honour a non-U.S. president - sits in a direct line between existing memorials dedicated to Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson.

Fitting tribute: The massive memorial towers over tourists in Washington's National Mall

It was revealed during a low-key opening at 11am in the U.S. capital, ahead of a week of celebrations before Sunday's official dedication

As well as the massive sculpture of Dr King himself, the memorial also features a 450ft-long granite wall inscribed with 14 of his most memorable quotations..

Visitors to the memorial reach the likeness of Dr King by walking through an 'entry portal' of two large stones with a gap inbetween.

The third stone, bearing Luther King's image, sits further forward on the plaza near to inscribed text which includes another quote from the civil rights leader: 'Out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope'.

The official dedication to the statue will take place on August 28 this year, the 48th anniversary of his historic speech.

President Obama is due to speak at the event in six days time.

The sheer size of the sculpture of Dr King sets it apart from nearby statues of Jefferson and Lincoln, which are both about 20ft (6m) tall, though inside larger monuments.

Jefferson and Lincoln - both of who appear in the famous Mount Rushmore sculpture - are widely regarded of two of the greatest ever leaders of the U.S.

The former was a Founding Father of America and author of the Declaration of Independence, while the latter is renowned for leading America through possibly its greatest ever crisis - the Civil War - by restoring the Union and ending slavery.

Martin Luther King, Jr is seen by many as a heroic leader in the history of modern American liberalism.

His tireless and impassioned campaigning in the African American civil rights movement lead to the ending of racial segregation and racial discrimination.

Check out this video where she makes a painting. The beginning is a little slow paced and out of context but when you catch the middle end of the video it's really cool how she makes the work.
