Andy Warhol

Ethel Scull 36 Times

Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was an American artist who is well known for his experimental pop art.  He used a number of mediums, such as drawing, photography, painting, film and silk screening.  His work was often seen as controversial, as it explored advertising, politics, and sexuality.  

Above is Warhol's portrait series of Ethel Scull.  He took Ethel to a photo booth to take the originally black and white photographs.  Warhol used acrylic and silkscreen on canvas to create the final piece.  This piece explores grids and color.

Self Portrait: Video Essay

This video shows my progression of learning kendama, a traditional Japanese toy. Learning kendama is fun, requires persistence, and is at times distracting.  I have been playing kendama for four years, and it has become part of my everyday life.

Self Portrait: Star Book

For the first part of the self portrait project, I created a starbook containing images that represent who I am.  These are photos of my family, friends, pets, favorite food, and most meaningful places.

Found Film

The objective of this project was to make something new from old film that was left behind from past students.  I used the Chromoskedasic process on the first three prints.  The last two photos were printed from film that I bathed in various household cleaning solutions.  This distressed the film, giving it a grungy look.
