Andy Warhol was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw this challenge, very simple so all about execution. I actually like the result.
Shot in Raw. Adjust picture style and white balance, +2 sharpness, then converted to TIFF (w/ Canon DPP)
Process:
Added a layer to clone out some label items not is the painting by Warhol. Adjusted levels, brightness, color balance, hue/sat. USM, resize, USM, save for web

A nice tribute. Certainly fitting for the challenge, although not as interesting outside that context. But a well-done portrait of a can of soup.
As you said in your comments, this is all about execution. And that's great. Color is just right. Lighting works well (a bit of glare on the top that Warhol didn't have to worry about, but it's unobtrusive). About my only complaint is that the white part of the label blends into the background. (Warhol solved that easily by simply drawing lines for the edges, a luxury photographers don't have!)
