Comic Artists

From 1961-65, Roy Liechtenstein quoted comic books in his paintings and used their stories to create some of the works he is now known for. The influence of comics on Lichtenstein's style is evident in his use of heavy black outline and a narrow range of colors, including what he called "acid yellow, dull green, purplish-blue, and a Life-magazine red." He often applied these colors with screens in order to mimic printed reproductions but a  comic artist does not necessarily need to color in their work. Along with Andy Warhol, Liechtenstein repeatedly used comics as a source of imagery and inspiration, even painting dots on his works  to mimic the Benday dot screen used by commercial printers to achieve halftones without changing color. Coinciding with the globalization of pop music and youth culture from the late 1950s onwards, comic art followed on from Pop Art as an art movement depicting  the most recognizable that society had to offer. Inspiring artists to this day, Artsper's collection contains works by Prisme and Nadine Van Der Straeten whose heart swings between illustration and comics. Depicting works in black and white,  she uses the tools at her disposal to tell stories of her own.
