I collaborated with my roommate's teacup yorkshire terrier to create Jackson Pollack-inspired paintings that coordinated with everyday activities that the dog participated in, such as playing and eating. I logged Kingston's actions and choices and made markings on the canvas that corresponded to what he did. The colors were decided by the actions Kingston preformed, their shade depending on which toy he chose to play with, and their repetition was decided by his consumption. The resulting splatters should indicate Kingston's preferences in his daily activities in an abstract artistic form.
