Andy Warhol - Repeated Images




Here's what they remembered...

Andy Warhol:
wore wigs
listened to the same song 100 times
was a poor and sickly child
would sometimes buy and eat a birthday cake for no reason

My goal is for them to hear his name, see his work, and someday - recall it and maybe impress some adults :)

We have been focusing on drawing and as I once heard an older folk artist say, "
The learnin is in the doin". In other words, they best way to learn about art is to do it. Personally I learn something in every piece that I create.

The Warhol theme is a good lesson on repeating or studying a single object and recreating it multiple times and in multiple ways. Some used a person, pet, or some canned vegetables from my cupboard. One of my kindergartners jumped in his mom's car and told her "
Today we did cans of Warhol"....I think he got it!!

If anyone would like to begin lessons at Studio 110....We do have some spots available
Call Today - 770-3151

We have serious artistic fun!!!
