The 4th graders and I looked at the Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. Lichtenstein had a very unique style of painting. His work resembled that of comic books! He worked a lot in primary colors and he used the black bold outline in a lof of his paintings. The 4th graders also learned the new term of "benday dots". Those are the tiny little halftone dots that Lichtenstein used in his paintings.
For this project, students were asked to draw a pop art landscape. They were to paint the picture in only the primary colors as their creative challenge. I also asked the students to incorporate some benday dots in their painting as well. I think it's safe to say I'm in love with all of their final pieces of work! Soooo
cool!!
