Thoughts for GCSE













Reversal 
I'm Dreaming of  a White Christmas - Richard Hamilton 
The negative image. Hamilton did a number of this picture in both painting and printmaking. He did a series of prints of I'm dreaming of a white Christmas and also a "black Christmas". Remembered as the first Pop Art artist from the UK. You can see in the screenprint below a more painterly/drawn quality to the image than the previous one which was the larger painting.
