Jackson Pollock was known for his Abstract Expressionism and “‘drip and splash” style of painting.

Although I’m increasingly appreciating abstract art, I’m not a huge fan of Pollock. How about you? Do you respond to his work?

 

 On the floor I am more at ease. I feel nearer, more part of the painting, since this way I can walk around it, work from the four sides and literally be in the painting.
