“I painted them all by hand — I myself; so now I’ve become a Sunday painter … That’s why the project took so long.  But I worked with a passion.”

Not the words of L. S. Lowry, so who is describing himself as a Sunday painter?

Andy Warhol knew how to communicate to the masses.  Would you agree that an extraordinary guy understood this extra ordinary world?  Somehow, somewhere you have to find.

Listen and you will hear.  Look and you will see.  Think and you will know.

‘The Last Supper’ using acrylic and silkscreen ink on linen is intellectually contrived.  Pure Pop Art Warhol genius with a distinctly American tale.

Warhol’s modern take on lettered words is exceptionally multi-layered.

Maybe Warhol is in a juxtapose during this series of paintings.  Certainly Warhol is honouring past greats with undeniable reverence to Da Vinci and Lowry.

Prior to these painting versions Warhol is already very famous, wealthy and commercially successful.  Therefore his interest is likely spiritual and respectful of Da Vinci in equal measure.  Warhol chooses to accept the commission.

I’ve said before that professional Artists are keen to study like-minded art persons of regard past and present.  The ultimate compliment.

Oh Wise Owl, where art thou art work? To-wit I say, woo, To-woo you thoroughly dear Reader.

‘Twisted Gases Strong‘ poem by Matt The Unfathomable Artist:

” Start up the motorcycle, twisted gases strong, winks the cheerleader in a gunnin’ leather throng, all in a sale, tellin’ peeps what’s wrong.  On a street corner, and a wall, bangin’ their mighty gong, of that burned up life, upside outside down, so monetary cheap.  Yeah hailin’ taxi cab, their U-turned Signer holdin’ sway to set a plasticated box on a mucked up compost heap eve’n in One Day.  Heads spinnin’ round the Sun, shoutin’ loud upon a mound, in a mob as one, of the sadness long ago, ‘From where’d it all begun?’ ” – Matt The Unfathomable Artist – Copyright © March 2015.

Warhol inspired pop art poem. Although today I’m groggy with a cold.

In the meantime I’d like to share a photo of my ‘Roots and Daisies‘ artwork with you in my next blog.

Thank you.
