The colors used in this image are very dark and depressing. This painting gives off a scared and worried feeling because she's crying and she's drowning. The girl in this image looks very scared and by the speech bubble you can tell that she is fighting with someone named Brad. Lichtenstein used many wavy lines to create the water. If you look at many of his other works you will see that most of them have comic looking characters that are mostly female.

This painting is named the drowning girl and is considered to be one of Lichtenstein's most important pieces of art. His idea to paint this came from another image of a girl who was in water and she was looking up at a man standing in a boat. When Roy first painted this image he project the original picture of the boy on the boat and the girl and just traced the drowning girl.

In this painting the main colors are all primary again. There are lots of paintings of random images on the wall and floor. Lichtenstein used lots of lines and patterns. He also uses foreground and backround in his paintings. I

Our first impression is that this painting is very odd. He uses the primary colors and lines to create this drawing much like his other art work. It looks like the head is thinking because there are thought bubbles coming from the top of the head.

Our first impression of this painting is the girl looks like she is worried or scared because she is crying and the expression on her face is showing fear. Like most of Lichtenstein’s work the primary colors and dots are used again. The picture looks like she was outside at night because of the dark background and her hair is blowing in the wind. Most of Lichtenstein's work also seems to be very dramatic.

After further research into Lichtensteins work we can infer that this painting was part of a comic strip because of the comic like character and speech bubble and much of his work consisted of pieces from comic strips. His comic strips usually feature scenes of violent action or sentimental romance. We know this because most of his paintings came from his feelings. What differs Lichtensteins art from others is that he uses dots to create his art.

The first thing we noticed about this image is that the girl in this painting was also in a previous painting that we saw. We think that Lichtenstein is using the girl to tell a story. Some of his paintings look like they are part of a comic strip. The man is looking at the woman in a very creepy, spine chilling, suspicious way. The technique that Lichtenstein used to create this painting was little dots. He also uses short lines on the sides of the vehicle to show that they are driving somewhere.
