Fabulous: A Portrait of Andy Warhol
"The illustrations, collagework with oil painted over photo-transfer, have the soft smudginess of oil pastels and the sturdy vigor of charcoal, with haunting urban backgrounds…” --BCCB "...Christensen's informal prose and heavily textured oil paintings, composed over photo collages, depict a man constantly absorbing everything around him and incorporating it into his art in a way that shocked and delighted the world." --Publishers Weekly “In addition to being a useful resource for biography reports, the story of Warhol’s artistic triumphs despite his social difficulties will prove inspirational for young readers who feel as if they don’t quite fit in.” --School Library Journal, STARRED review “Though readers will need to consult the backmatter for the details of the more complex and tumultuous years from the mid-’60s to his death in 1987, they will find this a vital and exciting child-appropriate introduction to an American icon.”--Kirkus Reviews
