325/365 - Jim - Warhol Portrait

( f/11 105mm 1/125 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )
Courtney was reading my mind when she said I should do a Warhol portrait because that was my plan. Warhol did portraits by creating a large silk screen matte and putting that onto canvas, then painting in the areas with over the top colors. In some he also did some outlining of features, which is what I did here. I also applied some textures to give it a canvas look.

Cool. Just like in the museum! Do Nolan next.

That's really cool, but I was hoping to see the "surprised" look of Jameson and maybe like 4 pictures of different colors or something...I think you should make it Warhol weekend and do another. Go ahead and cheat and use yesterday's photo!

I would like to see him in some pink or something like that, with only blue for the eyes.
