"Jackson Pollock was renowned for his unconventional painting menthods. He place his canvas on the floor and dripped, poured, and threw his paint at it, resulting in pictures that often remind viewers of childlike scribbles. Pollock's style of action painting is known as Abstract Expressionism." (Art Talk)
