The first art movement that I incorporated into my art piece was minimalism. I incorporated this by having the background 4 separate sections. I then had the 4 sections be different solid colors. While this isn't necessarily the same as a simplistic 1 color background, I wanted it to be like 4 separate backgrounds next to each other.
I then used pop art and found a repeated image in a magazine. I cut out 4 of the images and then pasted them onto one of the 4 simplistic background colors that I drew. This connected because it shares the repetition that was common in pop art.
Lastly, I used formal elements to figure out what colors to make the backgrounds so that they would complement the colors of the repeated images. For the image that is mostly one color I used a complimentary color to make the background and then for the other images that are multi-colored, I tried to use analogous colors.
Awesome use of minimalism - the color palette and the dogs give the piece emotion even though it is simple.
