Invite your kids to explore Andy Warhol's art style with this delightful Flower Pop Art for Kids! This Andy Warhol inspired pop art project would work for so many different occasions. It would make a beautiful spring or summer art project, it would also make a super Mother's Day card, or you could even paint all the flowers red like poppies and use it as a Remembrance Day craft.

Today we're looking at Andy Warhol art with this Flower art for kids, pop-art style! 

This beautiful flower art is super simple to make using our printable flower template. We've included a printable in two different sizes. One is full size, and the other is a half size, so you can choose to make a wall art piece or a card!

It's not the first time we've dipped our toes in the vibrant world of pop art. You can take a look at some of our previous pop art projects inspired by the pop art movement like this Andy Warhol inspired Pop Art for Kids, our cute Apple Stamping Pop Art Craft and this Leaf Printing Pop Art for Kids project!

Who is Andy Warhol?

Ok, so we mentioned that this piece of flower pop art is inspired by Andy Warhol, but who is he? 

Andy Warhol is one of the most influential figures in the 20th century. He was an American artist born in 1928 in Pennsylvania. 

Warhol started his art career as an illustrator for fashion magazines, and it didn't take long for him to begin exploring his fascination with celebrity culture through his work. For Warhol, art was a project, and he rebelled against traditional ways to see art, like the rest of the artists who were part of the pop art movement. 

Warhol used a printing process called silk-printing to produce art on a broad level, creating the same image multiples times but with different colours. This technique allowed him to mass-produce art pieces, which was something utterly revolutionary at the time. 

Using advertisements, imagery from movies, comic books, and household brands, Warhol took everyday life and turned it into art for the masses.

We have taken on the idea of repeating images multiples of times to create our own pop-art inspired flowers, Warhol-style! We were inspired by Andy Warhols Flowers which can be seen here.

Flower Art for Kids - Pop Art Project

Flower pop art for kids - Supplies:

• Printable pop art template
• Markers, Watercolours or Oil Pastels
• Scissors
• Glue
• Optional add ons like glitter, beads, etc.

Flower pop art for kids - Instructions:

STEP 1: Get the printer ready.

To start making these pop-art inspired flowers, begin by printing out our flower template (you can grab it for free down below!). I would suggest printing it out onto thick paper or thin cardstock. Once you have your flower printable, take out your colours, invite the kids over and let's get to the fun part.

STEP 2: Colour the pop art printable.

Using any mediums you want, colour each section of the printable template. We used watercolours, but oil pastels, markers, pencils, crayons or anything you have nearby will do.

Begin by colouring the background for each section using bright bold colours. We chose different shades of green. 

STEP 3: Paint the flowers.

To recreate the vibrant pop-art look, use a contrasting colour for the flowers. In our example we used pink and red.  

STEP 4: Finalise your flower art.

Using scissors, trim off the border, and feel free to add any extra details to glam-up these flowers! Beads, glitter, metallic markers... anything your pop-art heart desires! We chose to use small black beads. 

Once your flower art piece is completely dry, you can now display it or frame it. If you used the half sized printable fold it in half to make your greeting card. 

This flower craft makes a perfect Spring or Summer art project as well as being great for Mother's Day. It is also an excellent and out of the box option for making a poppy craft for Remembrance Day!
