“This blog is dedicated to abstract expressionism and abstract art, open for all artist to make their contribution with their opinions on my art, on abstract art, expressionist art, whether it be positive or negative.†I had to copy and paste from the weblog’s “about†section, because I didn’t know how else to describe Pollocks the Bollock’s Weblog.
I like the layout of the site right away. It uses a four-column layout that doesn’t make an appearance on many weblogs. The author has filled this one with many links, but has managed to keep the sidebars short, so it doesn’t take readers all day to scroll all the way down to the bottom. The menu of links throughout the site is also located at the top. This layout gives readers incredibly simple options of navigating the site.
The archives only go back to mid-August of this year, but the author has shared a substantial amount of information in that short time. The majority of the entries serve almost as informational essays to familiarize readers with different types of art and various artists the author finds interesting. Often times, there will be examples of the artist’s work, in both image and video format.
Sometimes the information is a bit overwhelming. The entries, while very well written, can easily give off the same vibe as an encyclopedia. People looking for information about this particular artists, or those people with a real thirst for this type of knowledge will really be in heaven while reading this weblog. The average reader, like myself? Lost most of the time.
