There are many details about how he created his work. A variety of verbs are used, which requires readers to have a good understanding of them. Age appropriate: Primary school students Historical/Contemporary Realistic Fiction Review: Jackson Pollock sets to work on a new painting. His movements and actions are nothing short of extraordinary as he breaks ground on what it means to paint. Critique: It is a good contemporary fiction because it will still be applicable in the future as people are discovering new ways of doing art. It is a good historical fiction because Jackson is presented in ways that he actually acted, but with some embellishments and changes. The first thing I noticed and appreciated was on the dedication page the author acknowledges that, "Some of this account is imagined." Though the author did incorporate firsthand reports of Pollock's actions and quotes from Pollock himself, there is still some facts that remain a mystery. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that unlike other artist Pollock used ordinary house paint instead of oil or watercolor. The illustrations in this book are slightly abstract which seems to be a testament to the way Pollock painted and saw the world. I enjoyed how the author took the reader through Pollocks long process from start to finish of a painting. Looking at one of Pollocks painting you would think he simply splattered paint onto canvas and moved on but surprisingly, he took just as must consideration as those artist who paint in intricate detail. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
