Pop Art- Pop Artist trading cards

We will be creating 2 trading cards each after choosing an artist from the Pop Art movment.
2.5" x 3.5" trading cards #1 will consist of:

A portrait of the artist on the front
On the back will be the following information in 8-12 point type:
d.o.b.
2 interesting facts about the artist as it relates to their work or why they work in the way they do.
What are they best known for in the art world and why?

Trading card #2 will consist of:
A reproduction of their best known piece or a significant portion of that artwork.
On the back will be the following information in 8-12 point type:
Name of the artwork
Medium that was used 
Size
Why is it significant in their career and/or in the art world?

Look at examples of trading cards that are presented to you.  You can use whatever program you are most comfortable with to generate type on the back of the card.  Focus on using appropriate colors, black and white will not be acceptable.  You can print them at home or email the finished file to Mr. Purcell to be printed.

Our objectives are :
Create accurate information that is presented clearly and delivered in a visually appealing manner that resembles examples discussed in class.  (use a minimum of 3 colors)


Create an accurate likeness of your artist and representation of their work.

PENCIL SKETCHES FOR BOTH CARDS DUE BY TUESDAY 11/26
