Lets Have Some Fun!

This is only for people that don't mind having a little fun.

I have loaded 7 images into a Gallery called Art Test Number One. The password is 123456

http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/fasgallerycom.html?tab=artworkgalleries&artworkgalleryid=509465

Without cheating by using reverse image search, tell us which one is the Jackson Pollock painting.

That's it. That is all there is to it.

Please don't make any comments that will give hints or give away the answer if you think you may have right one.

And again, please do not use reverse image search. Anyone can cheat and get it right.

Not being a follower of Jackson Pollock - it's probably the one that doesn't look like he would have done it #7 - but instead I'll say it's #5.

 

Floyd Snyder

Roy, it seems that you and I are the only ones that have a sense of humor. One comment out of 18 views! lol

I think the word 'test" has too many people worried about passing and failing.

No one can pass or fail. This is just a fund thing. If you bother to stop buy, cast a vote, have a little fun.

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Okay, there, I changed the title. Maybe that will not scare people away. lol

 

Chuck De La Rosa

9 Years Ago

I'm game. I'll say #4.

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Maybe I need to post the link to the gallery. Remember the password is 123456

Mark Blauhoefer

9 Years Ago

#2 from me

 

Val Arie

9 Years Ago

Anyone could be a small piece but I will guess #4

 

Joshua House

9 Years Ago

I like #1

 

Roy Erickson

9 Years Ago

I KNOW which one it is -

 

Lori Lovetere

9 Years Ago

I will guess #1. :-)

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Roy! Did you look at revers image search?

If you did, shame on you... oh, wait you voted already. hahahaha

Don't give it away until we get a least a few more votes...

This is interesting. I think it is anyway.

 

Gabriele Pomykaj

9 Years Ago

It is #1 to #7 .... :)))))))

 

Murray Bloom

9 Years Ago

#4 for me.

 

Michelle Wrighton

9 Years Ago

I'll say 5 or maybe 3...the others are pretty cool, but those two...arn't;)

 

Parker Cunningham

9 Years Ago

I'll say 5. Took a quick glance at a couple of his works, hope that's not cheating :)

 

Neva Cruddas

9 Years Ago

OK no one has said 6 yet so I say 6.

 

Debbie Oppermann

9 Years Ago

I'll go with #5

 

Susan Sadoury

9 Years Ago

Number 4 or maybe this one Sell Art Online

 

Patricia Strand

9 Years Ago

Wild guess is #4. Most look like they were done by Koko the gorilla! (Except that one)

 

Roy Erickson

9 Years Ago

Floyd - I've NEVER done a reverse image search - not even on my own work - and I'm not sure I know how. I did have art history in college and still have a few books laying around - somewhere.

 

Ken Krug

9 Years Ago

My guess would be no. 6. Second guess might be no. 3, but between the two I'd guess 6.

I didn't read any posts except some of Roy's by accident, so as to have no clues or influence on it.

 

Abbie Shores

9 Years Ago

THAT one!!!!

 

Ken Krug

9 Years Ago

Abbie, how did you know?? lol

 

Mary Bedy

9 Years Ago

I'll take number 6. It's a little different enough to maybe be a Pollock. Not a fan, so I don't have his paintings memorized.....

 

Theresa Tahara

9 Years Ago

Without looking at anyone else's answer, I think it is number 4.

 

Ed Meredith

9 Years Ago

4

 

Ken Young

9 Years Ago



I'll say - all seven are his. :-)

 

Nancy Merkle

9 Years Ago

I don't think any of them look like his, but I'll go with 4 as the closest possibility.

 

Nancy Merkle

9 Years Ago

When do we get to find out the answer?

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

I didn't see anything in the test rules that say,I can't choose none of the above, so just to be different, none of the above.

 

Abbie Shores

9 Years Ago

Just a guess, Ken, just a guess :)

 

Cynthia Decker

9 Years Ago

I pick the same one as Abby!

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

I'll post the answer in the morning.

It would be more fun if we had more votes.

I will tell you that there is more than guessing the right one. That is the fun part.

 

Peggy Collins

9 Years Ago

I think it's #4.

 

Roger Swezey

9 Years Ago

#6

 

Lindley Johnson

9 Years Ago

I'll go with #1

 

David Bridburg

9 Years Ago

I have no clue which one it is. So I will say none of the above.

They are not the style he had over a three year period in his heyday.

Is the work after his first abstract expressionistic work?

I just dont see his work in there.

He had a lot of different styles well before his abstracts.

Dave

 

Joann Vitali

9 Years Ago

I'll go with 5

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

That's not an original answer David. lol

 

David Bridburg

9 Years Ago

I am picturing myself on a beach. The water is warm. It is mid day, the sun is high in the sky.
The waves roll endlessly into land.

Did I just win Floyd's prize for this contest?

Dave

Mario, what do you know?

 

Mario Carta

9 Years Ago

I said it first, you get 2nd prize.sorry

 

Cathy Anderson

9 Years Ago

Number 6

 

Bob Galka

9 Years Ago

#5

 

Darice Machel McGuire

9 Years Ago

#1

 

Brian Wallace

9 Years Ago

I just saw the movie about Jackson Pollock on TV and "blank blank blank blank blank blank", so I'm guessing #4.

 

Matthias Hauser

9 Years Ago

Hmmmmm... Wild guess: Nr. 4

 

Jane McIlroy

9 Years Ago

I disagree with Abbie - it's the other one!

 

Dorothy Berry-Lound

9 Years Ago

Good morning! Number 4 would be my guess.

 

Andy PYRAH

9 Years Ago

It's the one on the left,
just below the one above it.

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Okay, all you guys and gals that have the funny comments, but no vote, that's cool. The OP says let's have some fun. But what are you afraid of?

Stick your neck out.... post a number.... chickens! lol

 

David Bridburg

9 Years Ago

Number 7 after sleeping on it.

 

Deb Wolf

9 Years Ago

Thinking #4

 

Chuck De La Rosa

9 Years Ago

I think there's only an hour left to the morning in Pacific time. So what's the answer?

Several people got it right but only one person got it totally right or at least posted that she did.

Patricia Strand Patricia Strand18 Hours Ago
Wild guess is #4. Most look like they were done by Koko the gorilla! (Except that one)

But it was not the gorilla. They are painted by monkeys!

 

Patricia Strand

9 Years Ago

Thanks, Floyd. I've been a fan of Koko forever ... need to check and see if she's still doing ok. I don't know anything about Pollock, aside from the fact that one of his paintings was discovered at a Goodwill a while back. It's probably the one reason I still go there from time to time, lol.

Valerie Reeves

9 Years Ago

#4 for me

Edit--I see the answer has been posted above, but I swear I commented before I saw it. lol

Marlene Burns

9 Years Ago

#8, without a doubt

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Marlene! That is even more funny considering I posted the answer already!! lol

Which I am sure you seen.

 

Floyd Snyder

9 Years Ago

Congrats to those that got it right....

And tanks to all that were good sport enough to cast a vote and those that just added a comment in fun.

I have to tell you, I would have probably gotten it wrong myself.

No offence to Jackson Pollock, but I like number 3 the best and number 7 the second best so I probably would have went with umber 3. Number 4, the real Jackson Pollock, looks to much like blood splatter to me and I just don't like the idea of that.

I love abstract art, but I know nothing about it.
