How did Roy Lichtenstein make his art?

1 Answer
Roy Lichtenstein made his art by using comic books and advertisements as sources. He took images from pop culture and then painted them using Magna acrylic paints that had a flat finish that mimicked the look of printing inks. The Pop artist worked mostly in primary colors and employed thick lines and Ben-Day dots to give his work a cartoon-like quality. Shop a selection of Roy Lichtenstein art on 1stDibs.
