Andy Warhol

In class we have to research one of our favourite artists and draw a self portrait using their style.
Andy Warhol is one of my favourite artists because he has some interesting paintings that are creative and colorful!!
Andy Warhol was the founder of Pop Art Movement and he was one of the most famous artists of the 1960's he was a filmmaker a print maker and a painter!!He turned stars into art and he always wanted to be famous ever since being a little boy, He would say: "I wanted to be art businessman or a business artist. Being good at business is the most fascinating kind of art."

I love Andy Warhol's art because it is creative,interesting and i enjoy watching his different art styles. I like the way he has taken modern items like tomato soup and turned it a beautiful piece of art!!!!

This is his most famous piece of art The Can Of Soup
