This is so cleverly conceived and written. I like how you played with the prompt and how you brought in 4 artists that worked in different genres.
Thank you Victoria. Thought I would spread the culture around a bit.
Lots of fun. Love that last line!
Thank you Sarah! 🙂 …a fun tanka, with a few facts, was the sole objective.
Nice last line. Perfect description of pop.
Thank you Frank, and I wrote that last line as I did, to leave it open to each individual to apply their own interpretation of the meaning of “pop”, and evaluation of the associated movement… 🙂 Did it “pop” because it failed broken, or did it “pop” like a firework showering our culture with beauty and inspiration? hmmm… 😉
You introduced us to varied pop art in a tidy few words and tied it with a bow! Pop goes the easel!
I was feeling efficient Bev… 🙂
