I want to start off by saying I love pop art.
Some of my favorite artists were part of the pop art movement. (Lichtenstein being at the top of my list.)
I think it’s the bright colors that pull me in, (in case you haven’t notice I tend to use a lot of color in my work).
That being said, tonight’s piece is another friend tribute.
I loved her new profile picture and had to swipe it.
I’ve been staring at it for probably months now trying to decide how to approach it.
I even did a version in marker (simplified colors like my yelling man) but it just didn’t turn out right.
I didn’t want to loose any of the subtleties of the picture so tonight I decided I’d do a Warhol inspired version of her.
The thing is, I couldn’t decide on which color scheme to go with. I think both suit her personality.
I guess I’ll let you decide which you like better. (Of course Eve gets the final say as to which (if either) is the better one 🙂 )
Here she is, “Eve” pop art version 1 & 2
