Jackson Pollock Paintings


Jackson Pollock Action Paintings
Zootown Artists at Lewis and Clark, Paxson, and Rattlesnake Elementary studied artist Jackson Pollock last week. Pollock was an influential American painter and a major force in the abstract expressionist movement. He was married to noted abstract painter Lee Krasner. Students filled balloons with paint and then threw them at large pieces of paper. The works became beautiful explosions of color. Mats were donated to frame the works by Art Attic, Inc., Marie's Arteries, and LA Design of Missoula.
