For a short collaborative lesson Year 6 were challenged to create a repeated Andy Warhol-style piece of artwork. We discussed his work with the help of the research sheet below.
Each child was given two pieces of coloured card which they had to fold in half.
Then, draw around their hand over two coloured A5 pieces.
Next, cut out and stick on opposite colours.
Finally, children were allowed to create the shadow effect be having their hand painted black and printing on each card a hand.
They really enjoyed the process of having their hand painted! They hadn't made hand print painting in years. It was such good fun to see their happy faces when the paint was applied :)
The results are so effective, especially as a group piece.
Each child signed their work of art. I told them to keep it or even give it to a loved one as an extremely funky-Pop-Art-Warhol-style gift.
