Andy Warhol

         Andrew Warhola, Jr or mostly known as Andy Warhol was one of the most famous known artists till today. Andy was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on August 6th 1928. Andy was raised in the ghetto, but then moved on to the big apple, NEW YORK!! He had left his home with only $200, he had to use that money to survive and become a big shot.

      Andy had become famous after selling some art pieces to a cafe in which a lot of celebrity's would hang out at. he would stay in the there and talk to the manager. Finally he got to sell his art work there and from there is when his career started! He would sell his work for about 12.50, but this was the only way he'd get noticed.
         After selling his work there a bunch of celebrity's thought he was an amazing artist. So they started to go to him. Andy then become a famous person, not only for his work,and art. But also for owning the "Hot Spot" for all the celebrity's. They would hang at his studio where Andy would do all his work. He become very famous,and was #1!!
       Andy Warhol had become famous or his all his work. Andy did bring a whole new era into art. This is what we call art today,and we should really appreciate all he's done for us. He was an amazing person and should be recognized,and respected by all. Sadly Andy had died February 22nd 1987,but will still be remembered. Luckily he has a museum and I would love to go see his artwork in that museum!!
