Andy Warhol

I picked a painting by Andy Warhol because his work has always stuck out to me. He uses pop art to put his own interpretation on original pieces. I chose his artwork, Campbell's Soup Cans, because this is the one he is most famous for and the one everyone will probably recognize the most of his work. He painted different flavors of Campbell's Soup 32 times to make it look like cans on a shelf in a grocery store. I read that he used to have soup everyday for lunch so he put his own twist on an everyday simple food item that didn't mean much to anyone else. I also chose Warhol's painting because his pop art is very different than the other artist's work that we saw in Tuesday's class.
