Marilyn Monroe (Turquoise) - Screenprint on Canvas 40" x 40"

Marilyn Monroe (Turquoise) by WarHo™ is a 2025 screenprint on canvas that immerses the iconic portrait of Monroe in a vibrant field of turquoise. The cool-toned background—neither blue nor green, but somewhere between—sets a crisp, contemporary tone that feels fresh and cinematic. The sharp contrast between the deep black silkscreen and the saturated turquoise backdrop makes the image pop with clarity, while also introducing a sense of stillness, as if caught mid-glow.

WarHo™’s process remains rooted in the artisanal mechanics of Pop: the image is pulled by hand from custom silkscreens based on the original Gene Korman publicity photograph, a foundational source also used by Warhol. The halftone texture remains visible and tactile, grounding the sleek color in the imperfections of printmaking. The use of turquoise here gestures toward mid-century design, vintage fashion palettes, and even retro poolside glamour—yet it also feels forward-looking, like a digitized icon on a luminous screen.

In Marilyn Monroe (Turquoise), WarHo™ offers a portrait that’s at once crisp and contemplative. The color doesn’t overwhelm; it steadies. It invites viewers to sit with the image, to let it linger, cool and composed. This isn’t the hot flash of celebrity—it’s its afterglow.
