UglyDolls Pop Art

Now that the UglyDoll stuffed animals are complete, what shall we do with the templates?  I wanted the students to dabble with making pop art specifically in the style of Roy Lichtenstein.  In the spirit of Lichtenstein, I had student make a four block comic book grid of their UglyDolls.  Students were asked to trace their templates four different ways and consider the implications of off-centering their composition to make for a more dynamic artwork.  Once their character was placed in their grid four different ways, students used oil pastels to color them in and then a variety of stamping tools to paint a comic book style background.
