Happy birthday, Pollock.

Pollock, Convergence, 1952


Jackson Pollock was born on this day in 1912.

I don't use the accident. I deny the accident.  There is no accident, just as there is no beginning and no end.  I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image ... because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess.
