Andy Warhol Artist Statement
I decided with the Warhol banner with the image of himself placed on the right of the banner. I decided with these designs because it complements his overall design concept. With the different colors and the repetitive patterns he uses on his artworks. The repetitive colors and patterns I used through the banner compliments his overall design on many of his works.

IMD 105 Andy Warhol Proposal
Andy Warhol was an American painter, printmaker and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the visual art movement know as pop art. I’m going to focus on the period from 1950’s-1960’s. Some of his famous works are, Campbell's Soup Cans and Coca Cola bottles, Marilyn Monroe, and Elvis Presley "Eight Elvises".
I’m going to design the banner by representing his style of bright; vibrant colors and designing it like a grid system, similar to Warhol’s repetitive style on some of his artworks. Images I’m going to use: Campbell's Soup Cans ,Coca-Cola bottles, Elvis, Marilyn, Micky Mouse, Flowers, Jackie, Red Race Riot, Goethe, etc.

What are your 3 favorite websites?
washingtonpost.com
I like this website because of the content. White is the main background color for all the pages. The larger images have the newest articles. The main titles are in a larger font and in bold type. The header is at the top of all the pages, with the Washington Post logo on the left. The design is very simple. Overall the color scheme is white and black. It's designed to be like a newspaper. The grid structure is 1/3 navigation and 2/3 content. From a design standpoint, it's very busy with advertisements, but fairly good as a news media site.
youtube.com
I like this website because of the variety of videos to view, and it is a unique learning tool. White is the main background color for all the pages. The images are snap shots of the the videos to be viewed. The font type is all the same and very small. There is no header design, just the YouTube logo with the search site. Overall the color scheme is black, white and blue text. The site is made only to view uploaded videos. As a designer, the site is very boring. There is no design thought to the site.
Espn.com
I like the this website because of the sports news. The background colors change for each site and with each different sports theme. The typography is all in the same font and very easy to read. The header design changes on each page with the different sports themes. Overall color scheme is very colorful and intriguing for each site. The website is targeting sports fanatics who are looking for up-to-date scores and news. The site is designed into zones with the highest priority and most graphics at the top. There are videos at the top of each site and placed to be viewed first, which compliments the article. As a designer, the site is very well designed.
