a la warhol

Further forays into pop art - this time trying to emulate the repeat portraits of Andy Warhol.

Drawing over photos through carbon paper has given us the images. Next, we'll be painting them.

after andy warhol

Today we continued our foray into pop art by reproducing pics in the style of Andy Warhol. We used the good old tracing paper method of transfer.

aargh!

Regular laptop computer poorly again - initial diagnosis was a loose cable between screen and keyboard but the gremlins returned. Now supposedly needs a new screen! If this doesn't work then it might be more humane (and certainly cheaper in the long run) to have the thing put out of it's misery. This is posted on a computer that isn't linked to the scanner and can't read SD cards so no pics of the work that the children have been doing - namely enlargements of cartoon characters a la Lichtenstein. We're 'doing' Britain since 1948 as a history unit, so in art are looking at 60s 'Pop' art (from a wider world perspective). Hopefully the newly restored laptop will come bounding back into our lives soon.
