Andrew Warhola's Biograghy

I really enjoy looking at the bright colours and bold lines that are used for Andy Warhol’s art. Warhol was a pop artist who was full of life and talent.

Andy was born 1928 He was from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania U.S.A. His parents came from
Slovakia. Warhol got Chorea Disease when he was 8 years old. Andy was cutting magazines.

Warhol went to Schenley High School. He did not have many friends because he was quiet, and had shockingly pale skin and white-blonde hair. He loved to go to movies and started a collection of celebrity autographed photos. Warhol graduated from high school and then went to Carnegie Institute of Technology, where he graduated in 1949 with a major in pictorial design.

During the 1960s, Warhol began creating the paintings he is best known for today.
Warhol painted large pictures of supermarket products and celebrities Warhol found “The Factory” which was his studio.

He died in 1987 after a Gallbladder operation.
