Blog

So, over the weekend I have been researching Andy Warhol for the assignment due on Monday. I'm not going to go into detail about him so I have something to talk about on Monday but I found him very interesting and odd in a good way. I find all of his artwork to be simple and yet very strong in meaning. He said something I thought was clever, which i'm not going to tell not until Monday.
I think my absolute favorite screenprint of his is of Marilyn Monroe. I myself enjoy drawing Marilyn Monroe. I actually recreated the screenprint that Andy Warhol did of her and have it over my bed. I think Marilyn Monroe is really fun and easy to draw. Also I dont remember who told me this but someone told me that Marilyn Monroe, Adury Heburn and Elizabeth Taylor all have the same face sturctures which make them the most known Beauty icons in the world. I just thought that was interesting, which is why I think Andy Warhol enjoyed making prints of them because he knew people knew them and would maybe focus more on his artwork.
