Took a vacation to Florida recently and we had to stop by the Ripley's Believe It Or Not building. And i was surprised to find some pretty cool art work on display there. The first picture is of Jimmy Hendrix done with news paper and magazine print. I was really impressed. No pun intended. Lol.

JIMMY HENDRIX

This next picture is of David Bowie done with finishing nails and thread. To be up close up and see how they actually did it was awesome. If you zoom in on the picture you can see the fine details of the portrait. How they pulled of the shapes, and the shadowing with finishing nails and thread was very impressive.

DAVID BOWIE

And this one was a mosaic done in tile of John Lennon. I love how they can bring out an image of someone using tiles, news paper, or nails and thread or in the next picture the insides of an old cassette tape.

JOHN LENNON

And last but not least a flashback to the 80's its Prince done with the top recording materails of that era the guts of old cassette tape classic. And one of Led Zeppelins swan song logo.Hope you liked the post. And thanks for your upvotes, comments, resteems, and support much appreciated.

You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:

And i was suprised to find some pretty cool art work on display there.

It should be surprised instead of suprised.

F**k those bots. Lol.

Another picture from the Ripley museum that sums up how i feel. Now i'm worried everything i write might be a haiku. But i'm sure a bot would let me know if it was. : /

I always go back and proof read the post and correct mistakes. But they don't give you a chance. They openly shame you like your illiterate soon as you hit the post button. I hope i spelled that right. I'm just kidding, but it was pretty annoying. :]
