 * ==Andy Warhol’s first film was called Sleep. It was a six-hour movie of a man sleeping. Most of his movies were boring, pilotless, and extremely long.==
 * ==I chose this art piece because his painting stands out and he uses lots of colors. To create this project, I took the colors of the background from the original painting, and put it in my project. Then I took a picture of myself. I put the picture of myself in each box in my project. After that I used the threshold tool and I made each picture black and white. Next, I took the colors from the original painting and used it to color in my picture.==
