If I Could Take Home One Artwork I Saw At The Vancouver Art Gallery,Which One Would It Be? Why?1/31/2019 The Vancouver Art Gallery was an amazing place to go for a field trip. It was a great experience to go with my friends and go on a tour. I saw many amazing artworks, paintings sculptures, etc. I was really attracted to the abstract paintings because, they don't have a specific meaning to an image. It was the artist way of expressing how they feel without making and image is what I think. One abstract painting caught my eye in particular. I am pretty sure it was done by Jackson Pollock. I am sure that the name of it was Lavander Mist. I will have a picture for it. I'm not sure about anyone else but when I was looking at the right half of it, it was telling me a story of a village. Villagers were working in a farm with animals. On the left side, I saw a jungle with a tiger and a bear. It might've been the colours positioning that made me see it but I thought it was amazing! This is one reason I would take it home. I also really liked they way he painted it. Our tour guide told us that he makes swatches with his paintbrush, then he pours paint on his canvas and walks across it and does a bunch of other weird things to make it very abstract. This is why I find his way of painting very unique. The colours were dark but bold and I just enjoyed looking at it. My friend said to me that it looked like a war or battle was going on and there were bodies on the floor as well as soldiers. This painting has changed the way I look at art. It was all about using my imagination. It's amazing what people see because different people see different things because our minds are different. Jackson Pollock does a lot of abstract art and I like looking at his work and using my imagination to try and understand what the picture is trying to say.
