Student’s began this project by analyzing samples of Jackson Pollock’s
work. They identified the lines in the
painting based on a previous line study they had completed the week
before. Students then learned that
Pollock painted his line drawings by throwing paint on large canvases on the
ground. In order to create similar style
artwork, kindergarteners were given a plastic tray with different four
different colors of paint. Each cup of
paint had a marble placed in it.
Students put their paper in the tray, used a spoon to place the paint-covered
marbles in the tray, and then rocked the tray side to side. This motion guided the marbles across their
canvases, each one creating a unique design.
