He, Robert Rauschenberg and, Roy Lichtenstein got the pop art style movement started. That was his biggest achievement, getting the pop art style going. His most famous artwork were his soup cans, they mimicked the condition of mass advertizing. Pop art is a style of art, which explores everyday imagery that is so much a part of contemporary consumer culture; common sources of imagery include advertizing, consumer product packaging, celebrity photographing and, comic books. His media is drawing and photography. He uses silkscreen’s, cameras, video cameras, pencil and, various paints. His style never changed, he did pop art his whole career. Andy tried to make commercial things, (celebrities, soup cans,) and turn them into art. He was shot but he didn’t die from it. He died from recovering from gall bladder surgery.

The title of my artwork is “Nile Monitor in a Tree with a Chicken.” I named it that because it’s a Nile monitor in a tree with a chicken. I made it by using a pencil and sketching it in my sketchbook until I like how it looked. Then I moved to my final copy and drew the tree, then the lizard, until finally the chicken. Then I colored it with colored pencils. The Soup can by Andy Warhol inspired me to draw this masterpiece because it was chicken noodle soup. Being obsessed with lizards like I am, I thought of Nile monitors because they eat chickens. The message enclosed in this masterpiece is lizards are awesome, and I want everyone to be so inspired by this, to go and buy one. I love to keep lizards as pets it’s so fun. I enjoyed working on this masterpiece because I like everything and anything that has to do with lizards or pets. This is without a doubt the best artwork on the planet. No artist will ever be able to top my amazing “Nile Monitor in a Tree with a Chicken” piece. This is like a gift from heaven. You are all welcome for me creating this masterpiece.
