Lichtenstein Comic Style Portrait

The process of creating pop art from an ordinary digital photograph is not just an artistic-option. Many of our customers tell us that the pop art they select for creating their portraits is chosen often on the basis of their personality or personal choices. This blog on pop art personal, goes on to give a few pop art styles and why different people seem to be attracted to them.

The Bilal Style

Deep and dark undertones drive the magic of this style and many wonder who would be the kind of people attracted to it. Well even though Bilal is dark, it does have its set of fans, who contrary to popular notion are perfectly healthy. Our customer survey showed that lovers of graphic art and its detailing are more drawn to this style than the others.

The Warhol Style

The bright colours of Warhol are timeless, and are opted by many owing to the popularity associated with Andy Warhol. Look closely and you can even see the shades of personality hidden between the bright colours. Our customers rate him as one of the few artists who can really make you take notice of everyday things and normal-features. Perhaps this is also the reason why these are commonly opted as 50^th birthday gifts.

The Street Arts

Oscillating between vandalism and creativity, street art is one of the few art forms, with strong good and bad streaks. Put it on canvas and the art form speaks of creativity. Talk about social causes, and you promptly reach your audience. Our consumers say that street arts attract them mainly because unlike other art forms, these are really ‘real’.

This blog just speaks of three styles and why our consumers are attracted to them. The list of our styles is huge and in the following blogs, we will touch upon each of those. In the meantime, do visit our art shop and check out all the styles. Go for your gut instinct and tell us which styles you like or dislike and why. This exercise is important, not just to help you know more about pop art, but also to help you know more about your soul.

Andy Warhol Print for Mothers Day

Mother’s Day is right round the corner, and many of us are looking for that perfect way to tell our mothers how much we love them. So while some people choose to shop for the perfect gift to suit this occasion, many others are looking for simple yet effective ideas to make the special women in their lives feel important.

Because the season is right, and you also have a reason to accompany it, we bring for you some great ideas to make this Mother’s Day special. And we hope that not just your mother, but you too will enjoy the togetherness that these ideas and the occasion will bring.

Do something for her

The beauty of motherhood is that even small actions of thoughtfulness can make them happy. An offer to do the dishes, cooking for her, running some important errands, plucking wild flowers to make a bouquet, or making a cup of tea for her are enough to make your mom feel special. So if you have not had the time to plan anything extravagant, don’t fret, because small acts will count.

Take her some place she loves

If you stay away from her, this can be the perfect time to build the bond again. Taking your mother to some place she loves can make her day memorable for both of you. You can choose to take her shopping, go for a walk together, plan a picnic or even take her out for dinner or a movie. If you have the time you can also plan a good holiday in a special place with just your family. Spending time with her in this way, will make her feel special and loved.

Buy her a personal gift

Buying a gift for mothers is not always easy. They can be picky and choosy, and may not like high amounts being spent on them. A personal gift that immortalizes a time that the two of you spent together can then be a good idea. You can take her picture, or one of her and the family and convert it into a pop art portrait. A great collage of fun times that you spent together can also be a wonderful gift she’s bound to treasure. If she’s the type who likes functionality in her gifts, get her a wall clock or mug with her picture and your message. She will surely love the thoughtfulness of your gift, and will not ask you how much it cost either! Last minute shoppers can even consider buying gift cards. These give your mother the freedom to buy things of her choice within the amount you choose to gift.

Mothers are the wonderful women in our lives who made us what we are today. There may be scolding mothers or loving mothers, but often they are a mix of the two categories. Whatever kind of person she is, she’s an important cog in the wheel of your life. And the occasion is  a perfect excuse to tell her how much you care.

Pop Art Portraits from Photo

In the world of the arts, pop art portraits are today enjoying an extremely enviable position. The reason perhaps for this is that pop art is more relevant to people.
