Jackson Pollock



I really liked this Pollock painting a lot for a few reasons. I like how he mixed the colors and the way each swirl seems to follow a certain kind of pattern. I personally think that its "messiness" is actually what makes it so original and unique. I also believe that each person that views this painting is meant to have their own personal perception as to what the painting actually is. Perhaps the painting isn't supposed to be anything specific at all. Either way, I really liked this one.

This is a painting known as L.H.O.O.Q, and was painted by Marcel Duchamp. The reason I chose this painting is because I like how it has a different feeling than the Mona Lisa, even though it is not much different from the actual original painting. I believe Duchamp made this just to have fun being immature with paintings that have been considered sophisticated for many years.

I really like the colors used. it like blues of every shade swirled into one work of art. every shade imaginable all in one, blue blue of the sea mixed with the blue of a sky.the blues merged into a wave to hug a sphere almost as if the sea kissed the moon. yellows and whites spewing from the moon into a mass of purples and magenta. i wonder why the drizzle of orange was chosen to solidify it all.

Lito Mayo

Lito Mayo was a Filipino  artist since the 1970's. I love the creativity in this painting,  Self-Portrait of Lio Mayo made in 1981. He was not known as a Dada artist but they considered his work to be apart of the Dada movement. He was offically known as a  Filipino graphic artist, print-maker, avantegarde poet, social activist, sculptor, satirist, and art professor. He spent a lot of time in museums working on art pieces before moving into his offical career as an artist.
