Rowr,
Pardon me for being so bold but I "borrowed" one of your pieces (hat tip to Sayterra since it was his/her piece I used). I choose this piece because it was so Marilyn Monroe that I couldn't have drawn it any better.
But here is your Andy Warhol piece we talked about in another thread. I threw it together, I hope you like it.
Pop Rowr!

Great stuff man! 
Wow that's pretty spiffy. 
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
Whether Rowr likes it or not I do!
Though I'm sure she will.
... darn beat me to it, excellent job!
sayterra's work...good stuff...and this particular piece lends itself well to this lil modification. ~

Not certain how I feel about this (now I know how Gill feels heh)...
On one hand, I'm very flattered....on the other hand, woulda been nice to have been poked about modifying my work :/
I hate to bring the party down, but when folks do this, it sorta opens up a can of worms. If folks think its ok to modify art without asking the original artist, we as artists, lose our very valued copyrights. Copyrights protect us from anyone taking our work and using it, selling it, or altering it without our consent. Without them, a lot of us would be starving artists and anyone could take a drawing that I or any other artist has done, add a detail, add a filter, and then call it theirs and therefore: art.
Since the sketch doesn't have the pop value like Cambell's Soup cans, or Marilyn Monroe, its not considered a cultural icon, and therefore isn't set up to be under satire or fair use. It's also very easy to pop a filter over artwork to give this affect, and part of me does respect Warhol's methods. He was a screenprinter, so every color had its own process, and pulling silkscreens (which I have done) is time consuming.
It's a cool piece, don't get me wrong, and I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but please ask the artist first before modifying their work >_<
Thanks...and again, sorry to be such a downer.
My apologies..... I never intended to step on anyones toes. Honestly it was just a quick piece of fun art for Rowr since we were talking about Andy Warhol. And I did not take credit for the original art.
I kind of think of Rowr and TA as the pop icons of this board, so it seems appropiate at the time. And believe me, while yes this was digital done (and I spent more time on it than a quick flip of a fliter)... there is no reason to explain Andy Warhol's work to me, I have a BA in Fine Arts with empathsis in Printmaking and I did my college internship for Interview Magazine which was started by Warhol himself (and I have the mastheads with my name in it to prove it.)
But that is really beside the point, and again I apologize and will remove the art if you wish.
No hun, its alright, just *ask*... it's ALWAYS flattering (and this is hard to type one handed) to get requests to use your art. I don't think I've ever turned a single one down.
The other reason I have to be on the ball with copyrights is due to the proposed Orphan Works Act which has been shuffling around Congress with various wording. The Orphan Works Act basically means that ANYONE and ANY STUDIO only has to make a "good faith effort" in finding an artist who did a piece of artwork (photography, paintings, prints, etc). Otherwise, the artist loses all rights to their work and anyone or any studio, can use artwork without any acknowledgement whatsoever to the original artist.
It is very appropriate, and it is very well done Spookie. I just have to protect myself as much as any other artist out there. Thanks :3
