Writing & Language

Since its heyday in the 1940s and 1950s, action painting has become closely associated with Jackson Pollock, the abstract expressionist painter who began experimenting with this technique after taking his canvas off the easel and laying it down on the floor. According to Pollock, maneuvering around the canvas on the floor allowed him to get lost in the painting. Photographer Hans Namuth, who once had the opportunity to observe Pollock's action painting, described it as dancing. He said Pollock gradually picked up speed as he circled the canvas, covering it in various colors of paint, flinging it rather than carefully applying it with a brush.

The writer wants to include specific details that illustrate Pollock's process and its outcome. Which choice best accomplishes this goal?

A.NO CHANGE
B.flinging black, white, and rust-colored paint off his brush until the canvas was covered, a tangle of splashes and splatters and drips.
C.which gradually was transformed into an intriguing mix of shapes and lines formed by the paint Pollack had applied.
D.continuing to add more and more paint to the canvas with his innovative technique that is now known as action painting.

答案和解析
