Summary

Jackson Pollock, known as Action Jackson, because of the amount of movement and emotion he expressed in his paintings, did not paint like a normal artist. He neglected the easel and chose house paint over oils or watercolors. Some liked his modern style and some didnt. But everyone agreed he was a true original.
