!” Today – skipping aint’ for no sissy’s. It’s been rediscovered as one of the best high impact, high intensity and calorie burning exercises you can do. As a comparison – an average 150 pound person, in ten minutes of skipping burns about 125 calories. To get a comparable rate you would have to walk briskly for 25 minutes, swim (non-stop) for 15 minutes or ride a stationary bike for 16 minutes. So turn up the juice and do some speed skipping, flip some tricks and that calorie burning will naturally increase. www.fitnessadvice.ca

Andy Warhol and his Paintings

In 1928, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania hosted the birth of a man that would soon transform the face of modern art. Named Andrew Warhol, this was a man that was destined to rule Pop art and define its parameters, or most aptly, blur its lines. Andy Warhol paintings today are considered as priceless collectors item's and even replica's of his art work are regarded as as great improvements to any home.

What fueled Warhol's success was his paintings of pop culture and icons and this series began in the 1960's. His first collection of paintings were silkscreen images of cans of Campbells soup. This representation of everyday items was what spurred the pop art movement then. Warhol was seemingly showing the people how obsessed they were with consumerism and gave those everyday objects an iconic feel. Apart from the Campbells Soup Cans, Warhol also used other brands and images like boxes of Brillo, Coke bottles in addition even the American dollar bill.

The technique Warhol used, silkscreening, allowed him to carry out multiple images and use different colors and variances in the effect. That is what catapulted Warhol to stardom in the pop art world.

Already gaining recognition for his work, Andy Warhol then moved on from painting consumer images to concentrating on subjects which depicted the images of this popular figures in America in this era. It is when the famous paintings of Marilyn Monore, Jackie Onassis and Elvis Presley came to be . By that time, Andy Warhol's paintings skyrocketed to popularity and he was producing paintings at a fast pace.

Exhibits of his works were being done everywhere you go and possibly overseas. Every image that he portrayed in his works were to become instantaneous icons and he's paintings was exceptionally significant in demand. Warhol would soon use this new fund fame to cross the lines between commercialism and fine art, for which some folks would wholeheartedly accept.

Warhol's innovation in his works of art was by no means stagnant. Although he continued to make portraits of famous figures, moving on to Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger and others, he let go of his repetitive style that helped start his career. He still produced very colorful art works and moved on to different topics that would shock yet delight the Art world.

Warhol's paintings though are not entirely centred on the life of the rich and famous, he also dubbed with other themes and had some series of paintings as well that dealt with the social aspect of life. His series the death and disaster used heavily edited photographs and painted racism, electric chair executions, car accidents and such. Even though these are not as popular nor as perfectly acknowledged as his other paintings, the series still is a part for his genuine artistry.

Andy Warhol's love for his pets also influenced a series of paintings dubbed as cats and dogs. An animal lover himself, Warhol painted cats that were photographed by a legendary cat photographer. And being a dog owner , he had two dogs at the least, he also produced images of his dogs.

Today, many Andy Warhol paintings are in great demand and command prices amounting to millions of dollars. His birthplace in Pennsylvania houses the Andy Warhol Museum and many collectors from all over the planet hang their prized Andy Warhol paintings on their walls.
