AUTHOR BIO
This whimsical collection of Andy Warholâs early drawings
reveals the visual musings of the man before he became the
legend. The relatively unknown experiments in commercial
illustration collected here were created between 1950 and
1960, pre-dating his more famous paintings and prints.
Fanciful, vibrant and bold, these early drawings of fashion,
animals, food, and cherubs display the signature bright
colors, distinctiveness of line, and repetition of unexpected
images that would spark a Pop Art revolution. Beyond demonstrating
the playfulness that made Warhol a household
name, these illustrations are a visual treat in their own right.
Interspersed with quintessential Warhol quotations, this
petite volume is a must-have for dedicated Warhol devotees
and a delightful discovery for a new generation of fans.
