Portraits are either paintings (and drawings) or photographs. But some clever artists want something out of the usual, something extraordinary. And so, they think out of the box and came up with these stunning portraits of celebrities.
Not only that these images have given a new meaning to the word ‘portrait’ but have also proven that even the cheapest and the most ordinary thing can be made into something awesome. These photos were created from everyday objects like computer parts, postage stamps, wire, paper and even trash.
