Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock lived a life of constant influences from Native American art he had seen as a youth, to education in the Regionalist style of Thomas Hart Benton. With the changing trends in society during World War II, art itself was evolving to express human emotions and vulnerabilities. Pollock may have felt that any form of representation was limiting to the artist and the viewer. Since he was so interested in psychology, this style of painting gave him free reign to paint from the inside out, creating pieces that have no forms or representation to allow the viewer to visualize their own experiences. His drip paintings allow for individual interpretation, hence the reason he stopped naming his artworks and simply giving them numbers similar to symphonic music. His painting technique could be considered a musical dance of paint; it’s layered, textured - the steps are choreographed but once the music begins, the art takes on a form of its own.

This image above is where I found my inspiration for my non-representational art below, titled “I Shit Glitter”, painted it on the back of a stretched canvas to help contain the glitter but also to almost frame it.

I found glitter in the soap today, looks like I'll never be clean again. There's no turning back now, the feathers are next...
