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…
