Observing Jackson Pollock's Art Techniques

The Yeladim watched a clip of Jackson Pollock as he painted 'Number 31.'
Where do we paint? Ayelet - on a Easle.
Where is Jackson Pollock painting? Shmulie - on the floor.
The Yeladim mimicked his motions while he let his hand run freely splattering the paint on the canvas. Binyamin noted, "We can only do it outside." (it would get too messy inside.)

After the Yeladim's observations, they set out to mix colors to create nice shades to use in our own version of a Pollock masterpiece.



Later, paper was placed on the floor to mimic Pollock and to get used the technique. The Yeladim traced letters on the floor.
