Hello,
My name is Patricia and I am going to tell you how to make Pop Art.
To make Pop Art you need to have  a newspaper, three cardboards of three different colours, white paper, black pen,scissors and a glue stick
First you cut some pieces of newspaper and you stick it in a white paper then you turn around the paper and draw a big star.once you finish you cut it.You need to draw another star a little bit bigger in one of the carboards. Sencond,you choose an onomatopeic word and you write it in one one of the cardboards and you cut the word, then you choose another cardboard. This cardboard is going to be the backround.Then stick everything in this order ,first the big star, then tthe small one on top of the big one and then on top of the two stars the word. Finally, you trace with black pen everythig.

Onomatopoeic Art

Roy Lichtenstein (1923 - 1997) was an American popart artist. He is best known for his enormously enlarged cartoons. After his art studies in New York and Columbus Liechtenstein taught art himself. In his spare time he painted abstract paintings and made parodies of American art from the twenties. In1960 he came into contact with Claes Oldenburg and the style elements from advertising and comic strips. He started to use use grids, dots, black outlines and bright colours, the style who made him famous. From 1962 Lichtenstein used the works of Monet, Picasso and Mondrian as the inspiration for his art and he painted sunsets in their style. Most of his work however is based on advertisements and cartoons.


Liechtenstein´s artworks use primary colours sometimes with green, text balloons, raster dots as we know from newspaper photographs and thick black outlines.
