“Donut worry, we’ll teach you all about Pop Art with this paint session!”
- Pop art began in the 1950s. This style created simple yet bold images of everyday items, such as soup cans, painted in bright colors. Pop artists created pictures of consumer product labels and packaging, photos of celebrities, comic strips, and animals
- Famous artists; Andy Warhol, Roy Lichenstien, Keith Haring
- “Ben Day dots” (named after illustrator and printer Benjamin Henry Day Jr.) is a printing technique dating from 1879. Ben Day is commonly described in terms of dots, other shapes may be used; parallel lines, textures, irregular effects or waved lines
- Depending on the effect, colour and optical illusion needed, small colored dots are closely spaced, widely spaced or overlapping. Magenta dots, for example, are widely spaced to create pink. Comic books of the 1950s through the 1970s used Ben-Day dots
