Number 28
by Mulele
Today I find myself inspired not only by the image “Number 28” you see above, but also by the idea of the abstract. Something I had never quite understood till I came across this little gem in wikipedia regarding the painting technique of late Jackson Pollock:
The viscous flow of paint, the force of gravity, and the movement of his body–the dance of the controllable with the uncontrollable to reveal, through its chaos, a mathematical genius.
Some claim that this “Action Painting” as Pollock called it, was Chaos Theory some 10 years before it was found in Mathematics. For my own art, I claim no rights to Action art or even abstract painting. I just like the motion of it and that is my only intent with this piece. Movement and design.

Abstract Expressionism, and particularly the Action painting style is awesome. It’s the in-the-moment that really gets me. Gonna put this on my desktop for a while.
