Turquoise Marilyn, 1964 by Andy Warhol
Andy Warhol painted several versions of Marilyn Monroe. He used different colors, sizes, and formats. Warhol was fascinated with fame for himself, but also of those that were famous. Warhol painted many other celebrities and iconic people from history. The piece below is the Turquoise Marilyn and was painted in 1964. I like the way that Andy can take the same picture and change the colors into however he wants. The way that Warhol can take an average picture and change it into something bright and colorful really amazes me.
