andy warhol

Andy Warhol is by far my favorite artist because he could take a simple
image and add another dimension to it with just color. Andrew Warhola
(August 6, 1928 – February 22, 1987), known as Andy Warhol,  was
a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art.  After a
successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became famous
worldwide for his work as a painter, avant-garde filmaker, record producer,
author, and a member of highly diverse social circles that included
bohemiam street people as well as Hollywood Celebrities.  He could
manage people and relate to anyone and anything.  He was a very ecentric
person that didn't stick to just one genre.  I admire him for that because so
many artists are just a graphic designer, painter or sculpter.  I think his diverse
thinkingand his approach to things in the art world.
