Andy Warhol

I really like the style of Andy Warhol.  The picture in the textbook of Marilyn Monroe is what I always picture when I heare the name Andy Warhol.  This same style of painting has been used to paint portraits of many other famouse people like Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, Bridgette Bardot and John Lennon.  Yeah, it's just a portrait, but Warhol creates unique and unheard of by incorporating color.  I really love these crazy colored prints.  It makes the picture so much more interesting.  I don't think Andy Warhol would have become as famous and he is now if he had just painted a portrait.  By switching up the color scheme he created art.
