6. MARILYN, SILKSCREEN ON PAPER, 1967  He liked to use bright colors and silk screening techniques to mass-produce artworks based on publicity photographs of stars, like this famous image of Marilyn Monroe

MARILYN DIPTYCH, 1962  Silk-screening is a process which can create lots of artworks/prints that look the same.  The design is separated out into individual colors, and the position of each color is marked out by a stencil. By pushing ink through the stencils one at a time, the colors build up to form a picture
