This term in Year 3, the children have been learning all about the famous artist Roy Lichtenstein, looking at some of his well-known pieces of artwork as well as experimenting with many new techniques to build on their current skills. This week, Year 3 collated all their learning form the topic and created their very own pieces of artwork based around the well-known style of pop art, which was started in New York by some famous artists including; Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, and Claes Oldenburg.
To create their final pop art piece, the children had to create their own version of Ben-Day dots, the children were ever so creative with this, experimenting with lots of different materials and techniques they could find, including bubble wrap, forks, cotton buds and Lego. The work produced has been phenomenal, both teachers and parents were particularly pleased with how well the children responded to this lesson and it was wonderful to see how much the children loved this lesson. Francesco, Nina and Sienna in 3G said they enjoyed the lesson a lot. Erdogan and Diana in 3P also said they enjoyed the lesson very much. Huge well done to Year 3 for their super art work!
