Starting my painting

In this weeks lesson I began to paint. I started by painting the whole canvas black, this was so that the other colours were really bold and stood out, Jackson Pollock used a similar technique in his painting (see below). I got quite far with my painting this week and I managed to paint some of the 'Tick Tock' text on to the canvas. Next lesson I will complete the painting by adding another layer of coloured splatters and text before placing my working clock in to the bottom left corner of the canvas.
