We can find patterns everywhere. Patterns are all around us, such as in the clothes we wear, the music we listen to, even the way we breath. The kindergarteners have been learning about patterns in their regular classrooms, as well as in the art room. Andy Warhol was a famous pop artist known for his vibrant paintings of celebrities and logos printed over and over. You can see some examples of his work by clicking the link here.
