Jackson Pollock. Action Painting (3rd &4th grades)

One of the tallers artístics in the second cycle were about the artist Jackson Pollock (USA, 1912-1956).

We’re inspired by his abstract work and we practiced different techniques using watercolours, pipettes, strings, straws but no paintbrushes. Some of the techniques were: dripping painting, string painting and blowing painting.

Children specially enjoyed when we painted on a large canvas on the floor trying to imitate the artist.
