Marilyn Image Experiment



I follwed this tutorial, http://abduzeedo.com/simple-roy-lichtenstein-style-illustrator-and-photoshop
to create a Roy Lichtenstein style image of Marilyn that gave a 50's pop art feel.
Roy Lichtenstein was an American pop artist, whose work was heavily influenced by both popular advertising and the comic book style. He himself described pop art as, ''not American' painting but actually industrial painting'' (Wikipedia)
I like the effect of the halftone pattern and how it subtly empashises the shadows and contours of the image.
