Learning Lichtenstein

 For the first week of school I have been in a new learning environment learning new stuff but this one specific thing was my main challenge. We were learning about Roy Lichtenstein and his art. We had to find facts about Roy Lichtenstein that we thought were important to help us with a self portrait. I learnt that Roy Lichtenstein was best known for his painting style called Ben Day Dots and that he became famous for his bright and bold paintings of comic strip cartoons as well as his paintings of everyday objects. He also became famous for his art that looked like comic books. We did lot of research in my class about Roy Lichtenstein. He was in a group of artists making art in the 1960s who were called pop artists because they made art about 'popular' things such as TV, celebrities, fast food, pop music and cartoons. This is where we got the information from Link 1, Link 2.

Have you ever heard of Roy Lichtenstein? Or Have you seen the Ben Day Dots Pattern?.
