Pop Art Task

Flax flower using cartoon and painted picture effects before selecting pop art.
Bridge using straight pop art effect

We are learning to use a range of effects to create a piece of pop art.

Go to the link (under Topic) on our blog for terrific tools and choose the programme Fotoflexer.

Click Watch a Demo and practice using one of the images - flower, bridge or girls.

Play with the effects then choose pop art to see what the final picture will look like. Remember this is your practice one.

Then choose a photo from our photo library - this will be the one you save.

Choose an effect - the last one you choose will be pop art.

Save - look on the screen for this word.

Give your picture a name and save in documents in your own folder.

Have fun - by the end of today's session you all want to have a piece of pop art saved in your folder.

Pop Art by Andy Warhol

As part of our Arts unit we are looking at the Rock n Roll music era and for visual art - Pop Art.

Pop Art used the imagery and techniques of advertising and popular culture icons for their subject matter. It reproduced everyday objects like soup cans, comic strips and advertisements.

Andy Warhol was a young artist in the 1950s. He produced artwork in many media including painting, photography, printmaking and film.
