 “EXPLOSION NO. 2”, (1959)
Lee Aguinaldo, Oil in canvas
His works are inspired from abstract expressionism, imitating the
action paintings of Jackson Pollock. Since he loves Jazz Music, the
arte he created followed the sample pattern of spontaneity. His abstract
works are colorful and bold. Using a palette knife, he flicks
paint into canvas, creating drips and splatters.

Abstract art is art that does not represent an
accurate depiction of visual reality,
communicating instead through lines, shapes,
colours, forms and gestural marks. Abstract
artists use a variety of techniques to create their
work, mixing traditional means with more
experimental ideas.
