Self Portraits in the Style of Andy Warhol

Four hand-drawn self portraits of a person labeled "Aranda," each showcasing different skin tones and clothing colors inspired by Andy Warhol's style.

Self Portraits
in the Style of Andy Warhol
2nd grade
            How are tools properly used in the art room?  What is a self-portrait?  What is Pop art?  These are the questions the 2nd graders explored in their first unit.  The students learned about proportion and drawing a human face.  They used mirrors to draw themselves and these were photocopied four times.  Pop art was discussed and they learned about Andy Warhol by reading a book and watching a video.  The kids used expressive color to color their faces in a Pop art style.
Four childlike drawings of faces in vibrant colors against a pink background. Each self-portrait features different colors and expressions, evoking an Andy Warhol-inspired style.

Four face drawings, each with unique color combinations for the faces and backgrounds, showcase a style inspired by Andy Warhol's iconic self-portraits.

Colorful abstract self-portraits of faces with stars in the background, drawn in crayon on a grid of four sections, evoke an Andy Warhol influence.
