pop comes from the word popular!. using images from the pop culture , an ipod is a good choice i think , i would thin worhold surly love it and have one in each color!.

worholl used print art , it's a when you don't use brushs to paint but rather copy the image by pressing a photo -
thats how you see many copys of the same image in his work!. his work are rather flat if you ask me!.!.no real great 3d image there!. but rather flat images reaping again and again!. with out any value on the artist painting touch !.

since i assume you don't have the things you need for a real print - try this trick:
1!. find an ipod image from a magazine -
2!. press it aginst the canvas so thatthe image is facing the canvas!.
3!. use a rag with spirit on it {find it in any harderware store - it used to remove paint} and rub it againt the paper!.
4!. repeat this mant times to get the "worhol effect"
better to use magiznie paper cuase it thinker and the spirt doesn't destroy the paper too soon!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

try dark colors for the background!. Use a complementary color (one on the opposite side of the color wheel) to you I pod color!. Examples if the I pod is red then use green!. If the I pod is yellow use violet!. If the I pod is blue then use orange!. You can also use an analagous color (one that is next to eachother on the color wheel) like orange and red!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i think you should do like 4 squares on a canvas and paint each on a different color and then do the ipod with some eye popping colors!. Like orange with one square with the ipod colors with blue and lime-green!. And another square with turqiuose with red and yellow and so on!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
