This art lesson was inspired by Roy Lichtenstein who’s art style was influenced by comic strips. The children used words often found in comic books such as: wham, pow, boom, bang, zap, pow, zoom etc and then decorated them using a process called “Benday Dots”. The use of Benday dots was a hallmark of American artist Roy Lichtenstein, who enlarged and exaggerated them in many of his paintings and sculptures.
