Bonus: Accidental painting
In the ’30s of the last century, the Mexican painter David Alfaro Siqueiros discovered a new type of art — accidental painting. The paints that got chaotically mixed stunned not only the artist but also ordinary people with their aesthetics and complexity, achieved with very little effort.
Today “accidental painting” is a separate type of art that is closely connected with fluid dynamics. But even not knowing their laws, one can create incredible patterns from colorful acrylic paints. All you need to have is some inspiration and imagination.

#16 I do not consider this type of painting "art". Sorry. It's something a 4 year old can do. It takes NO skill and minimal effort. These Pollock, Rothko, and the person mentioned in #16 are "artists" that are in the section of money laundering through the art world

Tash,
I agree with most of that, except Pollock. Pollock’s paintings are awesome.

just because you dont like it or understand it does not mean it is the same as a 4 y old could do. it is way more complicated than it looks, consistance, thicknest and paint weight are all things tto consider. plus color complement.... i done some more regular painting and accidental art is an harder to master than it looks.

Ophi,
Oh here comes the "you don't understand it" crowd. Here is the reality; Pollock lucked in by convincing some pretentious art world people that this was serious. The whole art world is rife with money laundering with "artists" who can barely draw a form and have convinced the unwashed that if you don't like it, it's because you're not smart enough to understand it. What a bunch of pretentious bullsh#t.
