“I am Andy Warhol” is a series of portraits painted using Andy Warhols’ Polaroids. Throughout the series I’ve explored different ways of portraying Andy by focusing on his iconic aesthetic and by adding a conceptual aspect to the work. My goal with these paintings is to bring them into a new light, introduce a narrative, and explore the realm between realism, and neorealism. I do this by utilizing different and unfamiliar techniques within each piece, and sometimes by creating a dialogue between him and his camera. This series is about exploration and the many different ways you can portray just one person, in this case that person is Andy Warhol.”
