“A Biological Frenzy” is an abstract combination of the opposition of biological systems and unsystematic design. While these are opposites, so is abstract expressionism and pop art. Both movements of the 1960’s  abstract expressionism and pop art are just as different. Abstract expressionism utilizes dramatic and heavy styles of painting and pop art defines a light and innocent movement. The under-layer of the two canvases and the larger drawing are done by marbling (a method of aqueous surface painting that is transferred to canvas or paper). The applied paint leaves a visible trail of the water’s wave motion. The drawings are done with bright markers to invoke the same innocence and liveliness that gives pop art its idiosyncrasies.
