Louis Waldon currently lives on a 38 1/2 foot ketch moored in Marina Del Rey where he re-creates Warhol's silkscreens by taking photographs of Warhol images from books and making silkscreens from the new negatives, selling them for up to $1,800.00. About his silkscreens, Waldon says: "You can't tell the difference... They look better. Andy didn't really know what he was doing." (CL)
