For the New Art Fan

The color coded artists are the ones whose work you should become aquainted with via the Internet or books. Buy these books on Amazon. There is no better way to spot the quality new artists than by comparing them to the past and current masters of the art of painting and sculpting. Warhol is listed number one and two for the past five months for obvious reasons. He was and still is the King of Pop Art. We have not seen another Warhol or Elvis since their passing. There must have been something special in the late fifties to produce two such giants of their craft.
