2nd Grade artists are learning about the art and life of the Pop Artist Andy Warhol! We looked at how he loved to repeat images and how he used color.

This project was adapted from one we saw on pinterest.

Second grade Andy Warhol self portrait collage

Second grade artists have been studying the Pop Art movement with Andy Warhol. We learned a bit about his work by watching a short youtube video (click here). We learned about his life and read the book "Uncle Andy's" which can also be found on youtube by clicking here.

We noticed how he liked to repeat images and how he copied images that were normally not considered art. We used his ideas to inspire our own pop self-portraits!

We also thought about calligraphy and graphic design by using creative lettering to design our names and qualities about us with each of our images.

On the back, we filled out our three favorite facts about Andy Warhol's life and art.



Learning Goals:
I can identify the art of Andy Warhol
I can describe Pop Art
I can show blending in my art with crayon
I can use calligraphy and creative lettering to create my own name.
