Fifth Grade students looked at artwork by Andy Warhol. Warhol is famous for creating pop-art images. Pop Art is short for popular art which means using everyday pictures or images such as photos of celebrities or mundane things like soup cans, and turning them into fancy museum art. Much of this type of artwork was and is used in advertising. Students used photos of themselves to paint pop-art portraits. They could only use two colors to paint their portrait in this graphic style. Students used fluorescent paints and black lights to achieve the glowing look of these portraits.
