Read the link regarding visual artist, Jackson Pollock, and the new product designed to help kids emulate his work, “Ready, Aim, Fire”. “If It’s So Easy, Why Don’t You Try It?”

2. What specific skills within your strand have you acquired that make you a master of your art? Even if you have only learned a few tricks, you all have the skills in some aspect of your art to consider yourself a master!

3. Many considered Pollock’s work to be easy to execute because “anyone can fling paint around”. What artist’s work do you feel looks seamless and effortless? Why?
