Program: Pop Art Comic Painting (Session 2)
 
Date: Saturday, June 21, 2025
Time: 10 AM - 12 PM 
Student age range: 8 - 12 years old
 
What to expect: 
Students will be using recycled materials to build textures and low relief backgrounds for a comic inspired artwork.  Students will incorporate an onomatopoeia: Sound word: such as Bam! Pow! Wham! Into their artwork.  Students will be using a variety of materials to create textures with paint to collage onto their enlarged artwork.  
 
What is Pop Art?
Pop art is an art movement that emerged in the mid 20th century.  Pop Art draws inspiration from everyday objects and images from popular culture, such as advertisements, products and comics.  Pop art leans toward simple imagery with bold colors. 
 
About the Instructor: 
Aly Grober is both an artist and educator in Fort Worth with over 14 years of teaching experience.  Students have come out of her art classes feeling empowered and more confident to embrace their creativity.  “My favorite quote by Albert Einstein is “Logic will take you from A to Z; Imagination will get you everywhere.”  I am excited to provide a safe creative space where students can explore their abilities, make marks, paint, splatter, have fun with materials and textures and just enjoy the process of being creative.  
 
Suggestions from Mrs. Aly:
-Students should wear comfortable clothing that they do not have concern about paint getting on.  Art is a process that often gets messy, which is part of the fun...although, we will be using washable tempera paint just in case.  
-All supplies are included.  
-Each session is stand alone and can be taken again, as projects will not repeat.
