I think Pollock really got beyond any real verbal type of comprehension. He literally put something "unsayable" on the canvas, which is the ultimate abstract statement, at least I think so. His painting is primal, brutal, beautiful. You can feel the energy coming off of the painting. He said it best, "I am nature".

Pollock did not splatter!...he had control over the stream of paint. is not just throw paint on the canvas, he is about rhythm and energy, if you want to do it ,learn. and to learn, paint a few years, you may get it

by the way, goggle Jackson Pollock, there is website where you can try digitally

i agree.  i have been trained to paint in the "classical" tradition and recently decided to try a more "pollock" approach.

i laid the canvas on the floor, mixed up some paint to the appropriate viscosity, and went wherever the paint flowing from the brush would take me.

i'm hooked.

it takes a lot more patience and time to pull off those kinds of results than negative criticism of pollock's work would lead one to believe.

doe anyone know how i could do the same kind of splatter??

[biology1234]

do you mean with paint or digitaly? with paint, i mean its just something you have to practice and develop. no splatter is the same, plus his canvases were HUGE! he had to lay them in the floor so they wouldnt run and walk on them just to get the paint in the center. looked or images on google, you'll see.

and digitaly, i have no idea.

he didn't splatter, he poured and dripped.

you could use latex house paint, as it flows well enough, though it is not really formulated to sit on a flexible surface (canvas).

both liquitex and golden (as well as others) make what are called "pouring" mediums. these help make artist quality paint fluid enough to create poured paint drawings (best way for me to describe this process after exploring it).

you'll want to allow at least a day between layers for them to dry.

hope that helps!!!

[arfmcarf]

after mixing the paint in a cup or container you can carry with you, load a brush or stick with paint and let it "dance" above the canvas.

pollock would utilize more violent splatters at times, i believe to mix things up a bit as he "drip drawed". you dont' have to do it, but if you feel the need to, why not?

nice review pod, I see you are a big fan by watching and commenting on this video. Would love to see Jack's works. Based on your endorsement, I bet his rhythym of application transcends most humans.

LARGA VIDA A JACKSON POLLOCK!!!

[zaohad1]

Jackson pollock was always working towards total abtsractionism anyway.

Its the artists inner vision that makes a work of art unique.

He was well respected for his art by other artists of the time years before he was famous or sold anything but he was a notorious drunk.

[chandru1103]

its not about BEING able to do this....its about daring to do this. it was revolutionary because it created a new way to look at art. The art world is not conspiring to force the public to like art that is shit.....it has a point beyond its image. Every flick of paint by the artist is recorded by the image, like a dance.

[goodcyrus]

Nice video on Polock's ideas. But I believe the art work shown is not a pollock but a digital one done with one of the various online tools made for people to make their own pollock. thanks for the video.

What a fantastic, unbelievable piece of art. This is a fantastic job on the greatest artist of our time. I absolutely thought it was incredible.
