Andy Warhol Workshop @ Artside Studio

"Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes"....Andy Warhol.  

Yesterday, I went to a fun art workshop at Artside Studio in the Magoski Arts Colony.  It was a brief course in making Andy Warhol-style prints.  Led by the artist Anna Hansen, we learned how to make collograph prints, a unique printing form that builds up a surface with materials to create a texture or image.  We got to make our own versions of classic Warhol pop-art images: Marilyn Monroe, a banana, and some flowers.  We made our artwork to a soundtrack of The Velvet Underground, a band who had a close relationship with Warhol.

















Artside Studio is located at 223 W. Santa Fe Ave. Fullerton, CA, inside the Magoski Arts Colony.  Visit www.artsidestudio.org for information on upcoming workshops.
