Poor Little Rich Girl

Button of Wonders

Day 3 of 28 Days of Warhol
This is the blazer and pin I wear with pride and joy.
I received this pin at an art gallery
and I like to flaunt it on a regular basis, like tomorrow.

Like a True Rolling Stone


It's my dream to own a leopard print coat.
Both muses Edie Sedwick and Kate Moss are both in on the idea.

You're the Boss, Applesauce

Day 2:
She is Mr. Warhol's most famous Superstar. She is Edie Sedgwick: a glamourous, old money, drug riddled, superstar.

Her demise was not pretty but her rise to fame sure was fabulous.

She roamed the streets of New York wearing a leopard print coat and also had a tryst with a certain Folk singer (Bob Dylan). Sedgwick is quite and intriguing muse.

Watch the movie Factory Girl or read "Girl on Fire" to find out more about her.

Day 1 of 28 Days of Warhol

Day 1:
To commemorate this epic month I ordered a book from Amazon.com called Andy Warhol: Giant Size. I saw it in the bookstore and almost exploded when I looked at the glossy pages, but I had to order it online instead.

It arrived at my mailing address via UPS 3 days ago. I was pumped and busted open the box. My family came over to check out my parcel, and they were not impressed. I believe my mom said "Andy Warhol is a freak" or something to that effect.

This is the same reaction that I received from my family when I took them to check out an Andy Warhol exhibit. My dad saw some penis sketches, and then told me he was going to wait outside on a bench.

Anyways, the front calls it a "comprehensive visual biography of one of art's greatest personalities" and says "extraordinary insight into his world of glamour, sex, and fame." Just from these statements, I know this is the book for me. It weighs 9 pounds on its own. It's such a beast, but I can't wait to look though it intensely. I may end up cutting out some of the pictures.

28 Days of Warhol

It's time to start another countdown.
The month of Feb. will be dedicated to the legend that is
Andy Warhol.
All 28 days of the month will be dedicated
to all things Warhol: art, music, fame, fashion, celebrities.
I think this is going to be quite the trip.
