Andy Warhol Moodboard and My Own Version...

In this project, I mainly wanted to focus on Andy Warhol's last era.

In the era where he focuses on death and disasters, we can see a different side of him.

In my mood board, I mainly focused on the feeling of discomfort and wanted to make it strange yet aesthetic.

I chose the color green and close tones to that because of the feeling they got. The Color Green can be used for the feeling of discomfort, rather than creating a total disaster and horror scene I wanted to focus on the strange feeling, the oddity.

For more contrast and movement in the frame, I added really dark green and bright vibrant lively red.

As a background, I used a poster with green and blue tones in it with white frame. I overlayed it with a shiny part of the chocolate package and reduced the opacity of it according to make it look like one piece.

I chose the electric chair from Andy Warhol's last era. I mainly focused on the high value of tones in there. For me, it was not scary but more like strange and odd. There was this feeling that gave

me a little bit of chills but also constantly made me think about it.

With using my mood board, I developed my ideas over my own version of Andy Warhol-styled portraits.

I mainly used green with red. The cooler red used as a factor which puts more movement in to the frame but at same time I used it for determining the edges. I used red circles to separate the images but at the same time, to combining them together.

For cerating these versions, I inserted my photo in photoshop as A3 print file. Then I duplicated it and click on Image>Adjustment>treshold and used the slider to adjust to the centre.

then we need to use magic wand tool to select the specific area we want. Then we need to go to Select>Similar. After deleting our background we can select and deselect it an with that, marching ants will dissapear, then we click on the layer and go to Edit>Fill then we just need to change the foreground color.

With the lasso tool draw around the area you want to change and go to Edit>Fill again then again change the color and click ok then deselect it. We are doing the same thing in the whole photo and repeating it to create different versions.

In the end of it, I also wanted to add some dots so the whole picture can look like a one big piece.

For the last one, I also used the original photo under the layer I created and decreased its opacity so created a semi realistic effect with it.
