I found it interesting that both artists played with the viscosity of their paint. Even more awesome was the diversity with which they used their medium. Pollock reached a drizzled and splattered look while Helen Frankenthaler achieved a look of watercolor with the paint soaking into the paper she worked on. Both utilized large canvases, citing the ability to better express themselves by doing so. I very much agree with Pollock upon the reason for making art. Much of my own work is an emotional expression of some kind.
