We set to work arranging and glueing the chopped boxes, flyers, newspapers, cartoons, posters etc. found in the street onto a sheet of large white paper.  Once the recycled materials have dried, we mark out an image onto the collage. (The skull is a random image found online used like a logo or copyright sign.)  The collage is then painted with acrylic and household paints. Painting on the floor enables us, as it did for Pollock, to view and paint the canvas in all directions utilizing the dripping and pouring techniques that later became known as action painting, the externalization of the artist’s interior process.

"When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that I see what I have been about. I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well."

Jackson Pollock, My Painting, 1956
