I love it when arachnaphobics see your spiders and freak out. "It's not a spider, m'am. It's a picture of a spider." I’m so glad that I like spiders.

It follows a theme that jof has been exploring for over a year: Marbles and the interactions that they can create. BUT it is also completely unidentifiable--a non-representational abstraction of colors, textures, movement of lines that lets my eye explore possibilities. The Marble Experiment began in Portland, OR, Summer of 2008. In a shop window he saw a bowl of exquisite orbs of glass. He bought a handful or two. Soon he was passing them out around the city, leaving them with dinner tips, giving them out to anyone who seemed to need a bit of levity. The reactions of most people has been incredibly touching: A cheerful random gift presented with no expectation and jof's smile. When he got home from that trip, he found a place to order more marbles online...<a href="http://www.rainbowturtle.com/" rel="nofollow">Rainbow Turtle</a>, ironically located in Portland, OR. Since that Summer I'm sure jof has given away a thousand marbles...maybe more. Maybe he gave one to you? <blockquote>jofedit:2009/11/01 at 11:00pm</blockquote> This image caught me.
