“My idea of a good picture is one that’s in focus and of a famous person” – Andy Warhol.
Artists throughout history have focused on and painted the rich and famous. Even during the Renaissance, rich patrons, such as the Medici family, would commission artists to create portraits of them and decorate their lavish homes. Fast-forward to today and many celebrities still continue this tradition, commissioning and buying artwork from well-known artists.
During this week, students will learn about how celebrities are presented in contemporary artwork. They will then use what they learned to create a mixed-media portrait of their chosen celebrity that is visually interesting, textural, and layered, using various materials and techniques.
Tuition for this class includes a fee of $20 for basic materials provided by CAW.
