The day we all went a bit Pollocks

We had been looking at the work of the artist Jackson Pollock and decided we would have a go. We adapted a range of squeezy bottles and plastic bottles. We put different size holes in some to let paint out. We used watered down acrylic paint for this. We went outside on the grass and put a piece of paper (thick cartridge paper) on the floor and then proceeded to dribble, splat, squeeze, throw, scrape, chuck and generally make a mess artistically.

We left the pictures to dry for a while and were pleased with the effects. In particular we liked the texture of some of the images. See what you think but we can recommend having a go as it is very freeing and creative.
