Pop Art Favorites
How are your favorite products marketed? We will discuss product brands, logos, labels and how they are marketed. I will share works from a few favorite pop artists, Burton Morris in particular, and how they depicted very common brands in their artwork. They will choose a logo to paint using acrylic paint sticks and watercolor pencils. We will use a sharpie to add details to the piece. Through this workshop, students will learn the process of creating a project beginning with the inspiration through idea development, project creation, completion and critique.
Personalized Workshops
Although the workshops described all have a theme, I would love to work with you to tailor the project to what you are working on in the classroom or just an idea you have. I can also create a project using different materials, a project series taking place over more than one workshop, or a group installation project for your school.
