Warhol Collage 9" x 12"
I am on vacation this week so I am posting my Paint Party Friday entry early. Plus, tomorrow will be my birthday and I hope to be out celebrating! I promise to make it to all of the artists' blogs at some point this weekend. I am entering two of my older pieces. I call these my "Tandem Andy's". They are two versions of the same piece. The first one is a collage of Andy Warhol. I used CitraSolv papers and acrylic paint on this painting.
For this second piece I printed the collage out onto silk and adhered it to a 12" x 12" wood panel. Then I painted it with encaustic paints.
I like both versions for different reasons. I like the colors in the CitraSolv papers and the effects they give in the collage. But I really love encaustic paint and the bold colors they brought to the silk. Plus I LOVE the splatter! ;)
Don't forget to check out the other artists at Paint Party Friday. It's always a treat to see what everyone has been up to this week.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PUCK....sending hugs
Okay - to be wuite honest - I love them both. Each picture is great in its own way. Wish you a very happy birthday for tomorrow, all the best, health and happiness etc. Hugs from Germany, Valerie
Yep, I like them both, too. I love the color of the second one, but love the way his eye draws you in in the first one.
Sorry you're getting older! (hee-hee) But I turned 60 two weeks ago, and it's about time everyone catches up.
I love them both Pam. Great work and Happy Birthday to you tomorrow. I'm going to be posting early too. Have a lot to do tomorrow during the day. Take care.
They are both terrific Pam and loving seeing the differences. Have a very Happy Birthday tomorrow. Annette x
Happy (almost) Birthday!!! They look great. : )
Happy Birthday Pam. I like both pieces too, but the colors in the second one really appeal to me. Happy PPF!
Happy Birthday Pam!! Love the Tandem Andy s! I hope you have a great birthday weekend~ Theresa
Love the expressiveness of your work. And a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! ;)
Happy Birthday!! An actual Party Friday for you!! I love both of these and would be hard pushed to choose a favourite as they do both have different qualities that I like. I hope you have a great day!!
Wow these are fantastic! What wonderful pieces done so differently. I have tried silk painting way back in art school and I enjoyed that would love to try printing on to silk one day :0)
This is awesome! I love your funky style of painting. :)
Both are great, maybe I GSTA but the first, gives me more strength .. Hug, and happy birthday
Happy birthday. Love both but the encaustic one is very cool. Happy PPF.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY from one Taurus to another! I love both of these versions of Andy. I think the possibilities that good printers have brought to our art are amazing- I LOVE doing stuff like this!
Happy PPF,
Stephanie
Love, Love BOTH!!! So interesting how the focal point is the same, but the materials create a completely different vibe. Wishing you a happy birthday and a happy PPF!
Both beautiful and interesting styles but if I have to pick one it's the first one where Andy's eye captures my focus.
Lovely work and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday! I've admired that collaged one before and think it is still my favorite. It has such great contrasts.
Wow, I love both versions! Hope you have a happy birthday! :-)
I love them both too! The encaustic fascinates me with the effect it gives.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! (It is my daughter's as well.) Hope you have a great day and a lovely vacation!
Both are very good and would be hard to pick one over the other! Happy PPF!
Both are fantastic. I love your style. Happy Birthday! and Happy PPF!

Happy PPF!!!!
I like both versions too, happy birthday
Very cool - to have it printed on silk. I like them both, too. Have a FANTASTIC birthday! xo
Love both of these.Happy Birthday.
these are both fantastic! Striking pieces of the striking man that was Andy Warhol.... I'm going to have to google encaustic techniques..
something I've never tried before but love the effect. Hope you have a WONDER filled birthday :)xx
Yay Pam..Birthday Blessings and Sparkles to you..and wow..both are fab!! They both embody different energy..i am super drawn to the first one...both are absolutely gorgeous!
Hope you have a wonderful birthday!

love this piece!
Pam, this is great, I only recently found out what 'encaustic' was, love it!
Both are amazing and capture the intense-ness of Andy Warhol, and the colors work like magic! As Warhol would say, they're "bee-you-tee-ful!"
I've only sketched him, but now you've inspired me to paint him. He's on my list. :)
PS - Hoe you had a very happy birthday!! xo
These are both awesome and equal to each other. Love seeing the different techniques.
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!
Both pieces are striking, but I have a lust for encaustic work.
Cool to see two takes on the same subject.
Happy belated birthday. Wishing you a year full of love, laughter and art. :)
I hope you had a great birthday! Nice work you've done about Andy. I'm sure he would have loved it!
Happy birthday Pam~ And I love your painting!!!! Before seeing the title "Warhol", I could tell it's him.
Happy Birthday Pam - I hope it was the best one yet!
It is so very cool to see these 2 different versions of Andy in such very interesting mediums... I'm going to have to look up citra-solv papers...
Enjoy your vacation!
xo

I hope you are having a good vacation. Next week for me!

Hi Pam -
I'm soooooooooo behind on blog reading that I just got to your latest post. I hope your birthday was great as well as your trip to Columbus.
I love catching up and seeing all the growth in your art. You are doing so many new and fun things.
I'm taking a local encaustic class in a month - can't wait. AND I'm gonna teach a beeswax collage class.
Keep up the experiments - they're fun to see.
Pam, belated happy birthday! I was in the middle of the sea for the past week and I am just catching up now...whew...soooo many things I missed :)
They are BOTH my favs! lol I could not choose for they both are incredible in their own amazing ways! Completely fabulous Pam! LOVE LOVE LOVE! XXX
