Da Vinci in the Dirt

[CHALLENGE: FRUGAL ARTIST]

:: www.dirtycarart.com

There’s something irresistible about dirty car windshields. Like wet cement, the urge to leave our mark overrides all sensibilities concerning vandalism-lite. We’ve just got to stick our fingers in it. The creative geniuses over at DirtyCarArt.com have nitro-charged that idea—elaborate portraits of Einstein as well as reproductions of pieces by Da Vinci and Michelangelo more than one-up the usual “Leroy was here” and “Clean Me” scribbles.

Scour the Web and find an example of art made out of the stuff we usually dismiss or discard. Post the link below.

Bonus Points: Create your own dirty-car-art drawing and post a link to a picture of that instead.

I love this post! And actually love recycling!
After finding an old box filled with vinyl records (I saved the ones worth keeping, not to worry) I decided to use them as canvases for my latest paintings...
Here are a few examples: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=120796&id=124814711861
