Roy Lichtenstein is the man behind pop art since the 1940’s. One of his many most famous art pieces is Drowning Girl which he created in 1963. The painting tells the story of a woman drowning and her comment in refusing to call on a “Brad” for help. She looks sadden with tears forming in her closed eyes and a hand faintly stretched out for some form of help. Art elements such as different colors lines, and shapes allow the viewers to receive the message Lichtenstein created in the image. The piece holds intermediate colors. The hair on the girl in the painting is a very shaded blue-violet color. Her skin is a fainted peach color which can be made by the color yellow-orange in tinted form. The water surrounding the girl is blue-violet also,
