Pop Art

Our new art project is to create an Andy Warhol style self-portrait.

We started off by having our pictures taken. We then traced the main features onto a clear sheet of plastic that was put into an overhead projector. Once the image was projected onto a large piece of paper or card we used a pencil to transfer the image. The pencil lines were then filled in with a marker.

Each of us is trying to relate the portrait to our own personalities and interests. I'm doing this by putting the names of some of my favourite movies and filmakers in the background. I'm doing this the same way we transfered the photo to the paper. I've downloaded the film logos from the internet and transfered them onto the plastic. Next week I'll start putting them onto the piece.
