How does Andy Warhol create images?

Answer 1

His paintings were sometimes oil paint on canvas, sometimes polymer paint (acrylic) on canvas.

Warhol frequently used silk-screening; his later drawings were traced from slide projections. At the height of his fame as a painter, Warhol had several assistants who produced his silk-screen multiples, following his directions to make different versions and variations.

In a quote Warhol gives information on his attitude in making his art; it makes clear that he made his art in a direct and spontaneous way:

"When I have to think about it, I know the picture is wrong. And sizing is a form of thinking and coloring is too. My instinct about painting says, 'If you don't think about it, it's right'. As soon as you have to decide and choose, it's wrong. And the more you decide about, the more wrong it gets. Some people, they paint abstract, so they sit there thinking about it because their thinking makes them feel they're doing something. But my thinking never makes me feel I'm doing anything."
