American painter Jackson Pollock was born on this date in 1912. You should visit http://jacksonpollock.org, where you can use your mouse to paint with "splotches" right on the main page. To see a wonderful collection of his works, search for his name with Google and then click to the "Images" page. My tie is not built on a Pollock painting, but it reminds me of his splashy style.
