[spotted at Buzzfeed] The Castle Artist, Christian Faur, uses wax crayons to create a new kind of painting |... By Daily Mail Reporter Updated: 09:23 GMT, 29 December 2010 At first glance these pictures look like nothing more than pixelated photographs but closer inspection reveals the images are actually created using thousands of wax crayons. Bored with paint and pencils, inventive artist, Christian Faur, turned to the childhood favourite for inspiration after seeing his young daughter using them. Christian, from Granville, USA, starts each piece by scanning a photograph and breaking the image down into coloured blocks. 'The individual 'pixels' of wax are precisely packed into specific locations to produce something that uniquely balances both photography and sculpture' The pictures are made up of boxes with crayons tightly packed together He then places thousands of crayons into a grid - like coloured pixels on a television screen - before packing the finished piece into a wooden frame. The result is a realistic image which only reveals it's humble Crayola roots on close inspection. Pixelated?

The Tire Art of Wim Delvoye - StumbleUpon For his series titled "Pneu", Belgian artist Wim Delvoye created a series of decorative objects by hand-carving intricate patterns and floral motifs on used car tires. Through his manipulation of found objects, Delvoye transforms things that seem useful in everyday life into sculptural pieces that carry a different value from their original intended purpose. Delvoye calls his own approach to art ‘glocal’, referring to ‘local’ and ‘global’, which is his own ironical way of describing art. Find out more about Wim's work here.
