Andy Warhol is an American icon and the leading figure in the Pop Art genre. 

First, in your own words, briefly describe the Pop Art genre. (Use the internet to help, if needed!) 

Second, write your opinion of Warhol's work. What qualities do you like or dislike? 

Third, do you feel that your Photoshop pop art has a similar feel as his art? Were you able to mimic his style? 

How does graphic design permeate your daily life?
