So, I'm officially writing my paper on an Andy Warhol Marilyn Monroe. And after researching her for the past days, I have become so inspired by her. She did not have anything handed to her; she worked hard for everything that she became. Andy Warhol's print of her is beautiful! I cannot wait for this paper to conclude itself so I can reflect more on her life and Andy's interpretation!
This picture is like the epitome of Hollywood, personalized, relatable celebrities that are truly iconic in our culture. I love the painting. Its fun and electrifying, a good choice for criticism and examination.
ReplyDeleteI was trying to think of a word to describe this painting and Sam's use of electrifying fits it perfectly. I like the use of heavy color contrast with pink, yellow, and black. Even with a limited color range, Warhol gives Monroe a smooth complexion and soft features.
