Andy Warhol: Free Love

"A sexual revolution was underway during the 1960's and 70's. Warhol explored erotic themes in his artwork and was inspired by the idea of "free love". Warhol was openly homosecual and an inspiration to those who suffered from trying to conform to cultural norms about love and sex. He believed that there should be a 1st grade course about beauty and love."




I think that the works I chose to post about relate to the themes in these photos. Two of them are a more sexual, and one had two faces, one a flower. While the first photos differs from the second two, I think they fit the theme of self love and not being ashamed of who you are/love.

Natural Landscape Pre-Work

I think the true definition of beauty is something that fills you with joy when you see it or experience it. For example, the utter bliss of watching the rain fall into a puddle or yellowing leaves on the tree's fall to the ground. It's the simple things that really take your breath away.

Whenever I'm outside, I find myself perplexed by the beauty of it all. I go on hikes a lot and since it's spring, the flowers are blooming and the sky has been more blue. I was walking home from my friends house this morning and there were colorful tulips everywhere and little white flowers on a bush.
