Art made from ordinary things
Art can often be seen in the most unusual places and can often be made by the simplest of things. The collection of pictures we have shared below focuses on extraordinary pieces of art that were made using common?. For instance, you will get to see a bull sculpture made of tires, a painting on a piece of bread and even Van Gogh¡¯s Starry Night recreated with paperclips, among some other remarkable art pieces.
These artworks show that sometimes all we need is a little bit of innovativeness to create something beautiful. Take a look,?maybe the budding artist in you can find inspiration from some of the art pieces below.?
Beautiful painting made on bread. An origami koi fish made for a tip jar. This looks like glass, right? But it's a painting on a rock. ?
This quirky and innovative painting has been made using tape. A man made a chimpanzee in his backyard using cardboard. ?
This magnificent eagle has been crafted exclusively with rubber bands. Van Gogh¡¯s Starry Night recreated with paperclips. This lizard origami looks so unique!.
Someone made this shark on a table using only salt! A handmade birdhouse that looks like some refined piece of modern art. ?
Can you believe that this was made using pistachio shells? One could easily mistake this paper bird for?a real one. An embroidered bee on a guitar strap. Imagine having a whole strap of these!

Khaleel Seivwright, 28, is a carpenter in Toronto, Canada, where the coronavirus pandemic has compounded the homeless situation and now winter is at the doorstep.? Khaleel decided to put his skills to good use to help the homeless in the city and began building tiny shelters for them.
¡°It just seemed like something I could do that would be useful because there¡¯s so many people staying in tents.? I¡¯ve never seen so many people staying outside in parks, and this is something I could do to make sure people staying outside in the winter could survive.¡±
 The wooden shelter, which costs about $1000 to make, has a door and a casement window. Seivwright, a carpenter by profession, builds and distributes the shelters to the homeless in Toronto for free.Last year, 128 people experiencing homelessness in Toronto died. Fifty-two of them died between October and January, as temperatures grew colder in the city.? To address the shelter shortfall, the city plans to add 560 more spaces during the winter in addition to the 6,800 shelter beds it is already offering. But residents say the move is woefully inadequate to address the potential homelessness crisis. Khaleel Seivwright plans to make sure every homeless person has shelter this year.
 Thus far,??site has brought in just over $117,000 ¨C enough for another 117 shelters.? ? Thumbs up to Mr. Khaleel Seivwright!Lauren Laborde of Houston, Texas, lost her job earlier this year as a result of the pandemic, but rather than sitting around feeling sorry for herself, she decided to use her time and energy to give back to her community.
 Ms. Laborde is mowing lawns for seniors and veterans who need a little extra help. Laborde is servicing two local neighborhoods on weekdays and some weekends.¡°I found myself laid off with COVID, so I decided that I needed to do something to put good back in the world. I got out and just started helping.¡±
Laborde joined the website??¡ª an online community of volunteers who want to help elderly neighbors and those in underprivileged communities with their lawn care.
Again ¡ it¡¯s a little thing, but I imagine it means a whole heck of a lot to those seniors who can no longer take care of their yard, and really can¡¯t afford to hire someone to do it.? Thumbs up to Lauren Laborde for making the best of a bad situation and using her time to help so many others.
Flo Osborne has been on this earth for 89 years.? She lives in Dovercourt in the United Kingdom and is a great-great-grandmother five times over!? So, what¡¯s she doing that earns her a spot here?? She¡¯s baking ¡ pies ¡ LOTS of pies!
 According to Flo¡¯s grandson, Flo gets up at the crack of dawn to start baking in her tiny kitchen, where she can only bake two or three pies in one go, and yet some days she bakes as many as 20 pies in a day!? Every pie is made from scratch, the pastry mixed and rolled the fruit prepared and then cooked in her tiny oven. But she isn¡¯t just baking the pies just to be doing something ¡ she is donating them for distribution among the elderly and vulnerable in her community. |
