Two straight black lines at a slight diagonal leaning to our right create three vertical zones in this tall, narrow, abstract painting. Rounded and fragmented forms are shaded with thick, visible brushstrokes in bubblegum pink, sky blue, teal and forest green, brick red, and mustard yellow. Some shapes suggest body parts like a head, bent elbow, rounded hip, and toes. The artist signed and dated the bottom edge of the painting, “Jackson Pollock 53.”

This work is created entirely with dripped and splattered black paint against a bone-colored background in this abstract horizontal painting. The left half is a collection of mostly vertical lines above a nest-like patch of crossing lines near the bottom. Many of the vertical lines are spaced apart so only a few overlap, and the lines are marked with splotches that resemble ink blots. To our right, more densely spaced spatters and lightly curving lines combine to create an abstracted face and body of a person. The artist signed and dated the work in black paint in the lower right corner: “Jackson Pollock 51.”
