Art One - Watch the Color Video


Click the link below to watch the video.  It is a GREAT (and very, very interesting - I promise) video about color and culture.

Art Two - Non-Objective Painting

Jackson Pollock

“It’s all a big game of construction, some with a brush, some with a shovel, some choose a pen.”   “The method of painting is the natural growth out of a need. I want to express my feelings rather than illustrate them.”  “Every good painter paints what he is.”
