They say that once someone came to his studio and criticized him, and when Pollock asked him to leave, he flicked his paintbrush, and a dollop of paint landed on the door knob!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Living in a city that has Jackson Pollock art hanging in a museum/gallery!. I can tell you it looks as if that could be how he painted!. Even Norman Rockwell referred to him as a drip artist/painter!. In fact one of Rockwell's Post covers has a wonderful Pollock painting in it!. By the way you describe the art as splatters, makes me think that Jackson Pollock might not be the answer!. I'm not a big abstract fan, but there is beautiful art created in different ways!. To find out who the artist is your going to have to give up facts, like is artist still alive, if not what era did artist paint in!? Things of that nature!. And then become an art detective and start doing some research!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
