Introduce your kids to the colourful and fun world of pop art with this adorable Christmas tree Pop Art Project for Kids! Christmas tree crafts are so much fun to make at this time of year and I think that will agree that this pop art project would make a striking Christmas card to gift to family and friends.
This easy-peasy Christmas tree art project is part of our unique Pop-Art series, where we dive deep into crafts inspired by the Pop Art movement, particularly in Andy Warhol's style.
Pop art is an artistic movement that started in Great Britain during the 50s and became extremely popular in America, thanks to artists like Peter Blake, Roy Lichtenstein, Jasper Johns, and the inspiration behind today's craft, Andy Warhol.
Warhol became a leading figure in the pop art movement. He created famous artworks with a printing technique that allowed him to make multiple versions of the same image. He used popular objects and cultural references in his work, like soup cans, celebrities, and advertisements.
