Work Title
Andy Warhol on Chimney @ 5110 Dresden Way 15201, Commissioned in 2015 (~15 hours to complete)
General
This piece was commissioned by one of the founders of fame15 Creative.
Process
The core concept of Fame15’s business builds from Warhol’s 15 minutes of fame theory. Thus Warhol was the obvious choice. At the time the piece was created Raymer had recently read an article about some unearthed Warhol MacPaint files. The retro coloring of the mural was derived from one of these early digital art files.
