Comment. Hmm, it's a very noisy and distracting background. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 01:26, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Per Diliff. The colours, though, are really beautiful, especially the silver stains on the wings. Against some odds, I tend to support here. --Tremonist (talk) 14:04, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – Per Điliff. (I'm not a fan of Jackson Pollack either.) Sca (talk) 20:54, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support – the article should really be expanded to provide more EV but I do support the promotion of this attractive image. SagaciousPhil - Chat 09:33, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Could use a tighter crop. Kaldari (talk) 01:23, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support -- I like the Pollock, basically because it is the same color scheme, and it has the same angles as the butterfly wings and the flower, and it creates a harmonious aspect. And as per Tremonist the silver stains on the wings are really beautiful, especially close up. Hafspajen (talk) 19:14, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You like Pollack? I am shocked beyond measure. Sca (talk) 00:38, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

^{no NO no, I like THIS Pollock, I don't like Pollock running around with a can of paint on a canvas laid on the floor and when he got tired he calls it ART. I call that ... the The Emperor's New Clothes. Sorry anyone, I think an artist has to do something more than just the so popular " I entitle you art" thing.
