Trivia: Did you know that Dryden Artists have made a pop art image "famous" too? The image is called, Shark Dog. It was originally a mistake that students thought was brilliant. So they created a theme song and video for it. The original is also in the art room.

4th Graders finished their beautiful pop art dog portraits. We call it "Pup Art". See the gallery of images here on Artsonia. This lesson became quite a sensation a couple years back when one student made a Brilliant Mistake. See the videos below to learn about Shark Dog.
Two years ago I did this Pup Art project with 4th graders as well. An incredible thing happened during this lesson that taught us all a new lesson. Find out more in the Story of Shark Dog Video and the Shark Dog video below.
