Re: Paint like Pollock.

Oooh! That was actually kind of fun. However, it should be called "Paint like a 4-Year old." No offense to those modern art lovers out there, but there are some things that make me question an arteest's artistic capabilities. Fun post, though! thanks.

Re: Paint like Pollock.

Well it is true some four-years could paint that.

It was at the Three Rivers Film Festival this year, and I missed it (atleast I got into the packed screening of Persepolis )

Oh yeah! I remember seeing the previews for this movie. Apparently it was well received.

Re: Paint like Pollock.

I will have to watch that film. Though to say it's not art because a 4 year old can "paint" like Pollock is a bit disingenuous. I'm sure world wide we can find a bunch of 5-7 years olds who can paint "better" than Vincent Van Gogh or Picasso who are considered masters. Painting with more realism or simply duplicating an artist does not negate the original artwork or artist.
