Art We Love – Pulse Points

One of the great pleasures of looking at art is the moment when a spark ignites in your brain and a piece reaches out and really grabs you. Sometimes it gets you from across the room with bold color or a flamboyant gesture. But it might sneak up on you during a long, careful look and completely change what you thought you were looking at. It’s just something that makes your heart beat a little faster and tempts you to open up your wallet and make it yours.
