Marilyn Diptych
 |
| Warhol used Monroe, one of the most popular and iconic woman to have lived as a product, a product that still sells now. This image has been created technically and is representational, it is clear it is Marilyn Monroe. Although it is a likeness it isn't a true reproduction but it does represent the face of Monroe. True colour isn't a significant factor in defining an iconic image. By using shape and tone to define the image the colour becomes incidental. |
Campbell's Soup Cans |
| Andy Warhol was a colourist, he liked to explore colour. The second print of the image is the true colours of the soup can and the others are explorations of what colours the can could be. Colour is the only change to all the prints and it doesn't distort the image at all, the subject is still clear. |
Warhol's Calf |
| I took this image and used photoshop to posterise into the style of Andy Warhol. I changed the tint of each photo in inimate to Warhols style of pop art. You can still see the image is a calf in a field but the colours are completely untrue to nature. |
