POP ART AND THE OTHER ELVIS PAINTING

«Well, what I was trying to do and it didn't succeed if you think of an art equivalent to music, you've got classical music, you've got Beethoven and Mozart. At the other end of the spectrum or in a diffrent area you've got pop music. But what I wanted to do was an art equivalent. If a girl liked Elvis to listen to, I hoped that she would like my painting of Elvis».
