Andy Warhol loved using the simple red and white graphic of a Campbell's soup can. And I guess so do I. This cartoon appeared in my book Famous People's Cats.
I did a similar thing in my friend Susan's round robin art journal which had the theme "red."
These artist trading cards are from a sheet of soup wrapping paper I bought from the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, after seeing a show on Andy there. I added the cats.
I made only 3 of these ATCs using Andy's own cat drawings. I called the series "Andy's Cats Play Cat's Cradle."
Inspired again by Andy's use of the classic soup label, in this case I used the Canadian version of the label which shows an actual bowl of soup.

I love all of these cards Ronna! Very clever.
Love them ALL!!! Fabulous.
These are absolutely amazing. I love your witty spin on Andy's soup tins. I'm sure he would more than have approved.
