Jackson Pollock was inspired by the book Moby Dick and the emotions protrayed throughout. Also his mum was fat and got bullied and called Moby Dick so Pollock expressed his emotions of the matter through painting this picture

Jackson Pollock did not paint "Moby-Dick". It is likely that you are confusing the artist with the author Herman Melville, who wrote the novel "Moby-Dick." Pollock was a renowned abstract expressionist painter known for his unique drip painting technique, which was not directly related to literary works like "Moby-Dick."
