my favorite, Andy Warhol.

My favorite artist so far is Andy Warhol. I have always loved his work. I feel like he uses colors to his advantage. One thing I look for in paintings is a nice color scheme. Warhol uses colors and color patterns to interpret the subjects of his paintings. I enjoy how he uses his works to give his very own definition of art. When everyone else doubted whether or not his Brillo box was art, he stood by it. That beef in himself is what aided him in becoming one of the pioneers of an art form, pop art. I watched a movie, Factory Girl, that was based on his studio, The Factory, and it showed me how much of an innovator he really was. He had the courage enough to live as an openly gay man and live by his own rules. I believe the reason I love his work is because most of his subjects are commonly know people or objects that he interprets and paints as he sees fit. It's like he's giving the viewer of his works a first class ticket through the inner machinations of his creative mind. It allows you to see how he views the world that we are all a part of.
