My Husband, Warhol and Garcia

I love recreating photos. 

Andy Warhol has been a source of my inspiration for most of my life. So, since we have all this free time on our hands, I decided to recreate my favorite image of Mr. Warhol using my favorite medium, my husband Mark! He is very patient with me and obliges all my whims. 

The more I look at it, the more details I see I could have added, but considering we did this with what we had on hand, in under 30 minutes, I think we did pretty good! 

This is not the first time. The last time Mark grew his beard out a few years ago I did him up as Jerry Garcia, I still get a kick out of this one! 

I have a couple other ideas but would love your suggestions, who should Mark be next? 

Stay creative, stay calm, make the best of every minute!

    Great likenesses. Mark could be a stunt double. Jim See, one of the architects of Cherry/See Architects who sare space with us really looked like Jerry Garcia when he was younger. When Edie and I would do public meetings, Jim would come along and sit in the back of the room. One time one of a client asked “Is that Jerry Garcia tagging along? Who is that character?” It was hilarious.

      Great story Tim! I wished I could’ve met Jerry, he seemed like a very cool guy and quite the character!

        He was an interesting guy. I was never really into the Dead like a lot of people. I like some of their songs.

    This is so neat, Tiffany! Amazing likenesses, and had to’ve been so much fun! Both the photo and the drawing were superb, lol! You’ve got quite a drawing eye there! Who should he be next? Hmmm, Lou Reed? 😊

      Thank you so much, Adan! I am lucky he lets me dress him up, he likes it too! I can’t take credit for the sketch of Jerry, (I wish!) it is a limited edition print signed by the artist!

        Ahhh, we’ll I thought about it after wondering if I’d mistaken that, then realized the two side by sides were (truly) so good, you could have done both halves! I can only imagine the fun you two have sometimes, lol! 😊💕

    An excellent job on this one. hard to tell which is which. Did you marry your husband because he looked like Jerry or like Jerry because he looked like your husband?

    LOL! Thanks, Judy, he actually didn’t look like Jerry when I met him, I may have influenced his look a little!
