Andy Is Born
  • Andy was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the
    year 1928. He was born to Mr. and Mrs. Warhol in
    the closest city hospital.

Young Andy
  • As a young child Andy started having strange
    medical problems. He fell ill and his skin
    started to get paler and turned almost the color
    of white!

During this time in his life young Andy grew more
and more afraid of the hospital.
4
Art College
  • Even though Andys father did not have much money
    he sent Andy to art college.

At art college Andy started drawing in a very
unusual art style in his paintings.
5
Shoes
  • After he graduated from art college Andy started
    selling his drawings for money.

Andys favorite subject to draw was shoes. These
pictures were the ones that sold the best.
6
A Different Style
  • In his art Andy painted everyday things. He
    enjoyed painting these subjects.

Andy also painted Marilyn Monroe.
Andy drew such things as the front and back of
dollar bills and the classic Campbells tomato
soup cans.

Andys Art
  • Andy Warhol had a very different style of
    painting. Every other artist wanted to know why
    he painted this way because it was so ordinary.

In his paintings, Andy used bright colors and
very simple shapes. He preferred to use the three
primary colors which are blue, yellow, and red.
8
Andys Largest Sculpture
  • One of Andys largest sculptures was hung in the
    Washington D.C. art museum.

This piece of artwork took a couple of years to
make. It had many trials and errors but was
finally finished and was hung in the museums very
large lobby.

Andys Death
  • Andy fell sick and had to go to the hospital.
    There he told the doctor that he wanted to leave
    because he would die there.

The doctor did not believe Andy. Then, Andy had
the surgery that he said would kill him. After
the surgery Andy got very ill.
Andy knew he would die in that very hospital and
as he had said, Andy Warhols life sadly came to
the end in the very same hospital in the year
1987.
