Andy Warhol/Campbells Printmaking, 4th Grade

The students LOVED learning about the wild and whimsical Andy Warhol. They were drawn to his soup cans from the beginning, so naturally when it was time for a printmaking project, that's where my mind went.

The students added detail with prisma-colors. They ended up with either 2, 3 or 4 of their favorites. I liked doing it this way, because the products all turned out differently when matted and framed.

Hello, I am a first year art teacher at a first year school. Which means unds are slim to none. Could you tell me how you made these prints? They are awesome renditions of Warhol. Thanks.

I am really curious about how you did this too! Did you apply paint to the page and then draw details with prisma colors? I am a huge warhol fan and I did a project with kindergarten class where they made "zebra" prints. Just wondering how you did this for future projects.
