Paraphrasing

Pollock was a great artist whose desire to incorporate himself in his paintings resulted to a unique art style marked by poured and dripped paintings. Pollock slung paint all over a huge roll of canvas spread on the floor and danced around it using brushes, sticks, and fingers to create a magnificent piece of art. However, this would result into a mess with everything in proximity having paint marks (Heller 75).

Quoting

I read a brief biography of Richard Wagner in CREDO, and I learned a lot about this composer's life. While reading about Wagner, I learned that one of his most famous works was Die Feen (The Fairies). The most interesting thing I learned about this composer was that “he wrote his own librettos, researching his chosen subjects meticulously” (Wagner para. 10). This composer's music continues to enchant listeners long after his death.
