Lesson details
Key learning points
- Sketches, research and planning aid the process of completing a final outcome.
- Artworks can be refined and evaluated throughout the making process.
- Choosing appropriate media helps to reflect Pop Art themes and outcomes.

Outcome - the finished artwork created by an artist after planning and development
Media - the materials or tools used to create a piece of art (e.g. paint, collage, sculpture)
Refine - to improve or add detail to a piece of work by reviewing and adjusting
Common misconception
A final outcome must look identical to the original plan.
Artists adapt ideas during making. Their plan is a starting point - not a rule. Changing materials or layout during creation is part of the artistic process.
