A series of digital works made on an Amiga 1000 are included among Andy Warhol paintings. A personal computer made in the mid-1980s, Amiga 1000 was a product of the Commodore International Company. The few public pieces that Andy created were then part of a marketing campaign. Whether he made any additional digital artworks outside of the campaign remained a mystery.
It has just been discovered that Andy actually did. A treasure trove of never-before-seen Andy Warhol paintings have been uncovered stashed away on dozens of unlabeled floppy disks. The artworks that were slowly deteriorating consisted of 28 works of art in the form of digital pieces created on a host of 1980s graphics software.
If there is one person to thank for this discovery, it would be an NYC artist named Cory Arcangel. A self proclaimed Warhol enthusiast, his curiosity was aroused after watching a clip of Andy Warhol paintings during an Amiga demonstration. Among the paintings was a digital portrait of Debbie Harry. In this case, curiosity did not kill the cat.
Thomas Kinkade put his entire life savings into the printing of his first lithograph at the very beginning of his artistic career. Thomas Kinkade paintings are inspired by the simple act of painting straight from the heart and not by fame or fortune. He felt a need to put on canvas the natural wonders and images that moved him most.
Thomas Kinkade paintings share the joy the painter felt throughout his life. He used his paintings to support hospitals, schools and humanitarian relief. Thoma
