Andy Warhol's Models



Warhol, who stopped painting phrenology
Was the master of painted technology
He found his self portrait and that of Jackie
Unsatisfying, underwhelming and a little bit tacky
Because each model had only one head.

While wishing for more out of models' faces
He tripped on his shoes and over his laces
Broke out with a fever,  pushed the wrong lever
Lost the maneuver, became an achiever
And created four faces instead.

Pat Barkman




Pat Barkman is really fast, man
I saw her demo (paints faster than I can)
Her paintings are great whether landscape or fruit
If that's not enough she's extremely cute.

 She's as tall as the sky,
Her bod makes me cry
Pat's wardrobe? ... To die!
Her credentials?  ...  Oh, my.

She saves the environment, won't let you pollute
She's charming, brainy, witty, astute
Does she belong with art masters? Is she resolute?
I think you'll agree, those questions are moot.

I don't know, but think I'm her greatest fan.
She's a better gardener than Holmes (that's Dan)
Happy Birthday, dear Pat. It's off with my hat
You're the best at all things with no caveat!

Joe Flom's Doodles


I am proud to be the keeper of  the late
JOE FLOM'S DOODLES
I am the caddy and
they are totally inspiring to me as an artist. 
When I illustrated the Skadden Newsletter,
Mr. Flom was kind enough to give them to me
to incorporate into my drawings.  
Here are some doubling as Easter eggs. 

Happy Easter and Happy Passover 
to all Depingo's readers.
