More quotes by Jackson Pollock
He drove his kind of realism at me so hard I bounced right into nonobjective painting.
Jackson Pollock
The secret of success is… to be fully awake to everything about you.
Jackson Pollock
The process is only a means to an end-creating the painting I want. It doesn't mean anything itself. It's only a way of creating a result.
Jackson Pollock
I do not paint nature. I am nature.
Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock
The painter locks himself out of his own studio. And then has to break in like a thief.
Jackson Pollock
A method of painting is a natural growth out of a need. I want to express my feelings rather than illustrate them. Technique is just a means of arriving at a statement.
Jackson Pollock
A man's life is his work his work is his life.
Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock
Painting is self-discovery. Every good artist paints what he is.
Jackson Pollock
I want to express my feelings, not illustrate them.
Jackson Pollock
I continue to get further away from the usual painter's tools such as easel, palette, brushes, etc.
Jackson Pollock
The modern artist is working with space and time, and expressing his feelings rather than illustrating.
Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock
I don't use the accident - 'cause I deny the accident
Jackson Pollock
I've been thinking of death a lot, and I am amazed by its inevitability, frightened, as we all are, of the totally unknown, and yet feel a long sleep is somehow earned by those of us who live on the edge.
Jackson Pollock
It doesn't matter how the paint is put on, as long as something is said.
Jackson Pollock
When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing.
Jackson Pollock
