Watch Andy Warhol "Paint" On A Amiga 1000 Computer.

In 1985, artist Andy Warhol created his first digital painting on an Amiga computer (the family of personal computers marketed by Commodore). See him work his magic on a portrait of Debbie Harry in the machine's "paint system" (Photon Paint?) where he experiences a happy accident with a "leaky flood fill."

Fun trip down Amiga memory lane.

I believe it was Graphicraft, Photon Paint came later...

If painting is digitising a person, applying a paint bucket fill to the image and making a fortune I want to be an artist too!
