Jackson Pollock…find the face!

Jackson Pollock

So someone else already used the spray can on paint to make splatter art like Jack Pollock, that was my favorite thing to do on the computer as a kid, so I did something a little different on paint. I tried to create an abstract face using splatter paint in the Paint program. It was fun. I just let my hand swirl around the page with my computer-mouse brush. But, there us a abstract face in there if you can find it! I felt like I could see images within Pollock’s abstract art, so I wanted to make an image in mine.

For my first design assignment, I chose to make my own Jackson Pollock painting! I started off by looking Jackson Pollock via Google Images so I could get a better feel for his style. I decided I wanted to use a program like told-school Paint that I used to spend lots of time on back in the day on my huge desktop computer! I completed another Google search for an online version of Paint and I discovered Paint Online. Basically, I just splattered paint around and did my own thing. I experimented with lots of different colors and brush sizes. I had a great time with it, too. I felt like a kid again- no limits! But I also felt like an adult in the sense that no mess came out of it…that’s the best kind of fun!
