...before she moved to the U.S., the other of teenage Andy, both hand-colored by Julia in a style that resembles Warhol's technique, Bycko says. In another exhibit, a greeting card with a picture of the Last Supper, Julia used long parallel stitches to highlight the robes of Jesus and some of the Apostles. A pen-and-ink drawing of a messenger angel she drew on a Christmas card has been reproduced by the museum as a chandelier...
