Jackson Pollack Art

When I clicked on the link in the activity list, I was a little surprised that there were no instructions. The site ( http://www.manetas.com/eo/pollock.swf ) immediately takes you to the application of creating a Jackson Pollack style painting online. There seemed to be no way to change colors or to stop the movement of the mouse from painting. Because the color of the "paint" was a bright orange, it led me to create a large round shape on the page which resembles a sun a little. Once I frantically moved my mouse around a bunch of times to create something I kind of liked, I had to remember how to do a screen capture. I went back on the activities list to look at the Image Capture instructions. I hit the print screen button and pasted it in Paint. Then I cropped out the toolbar from the top. The image I created is below. I named it Orange Chaos. Enjoy!
