Gum-Wrapper Art---- Really!!

Hi,

Art is not confined to any particular medium. This is so true indeed and interestingly, the beauty of art lies in its expression through so many mediums, most of which were not conceived by many people to be able to create art, in the first place. So this brings me to post a picture of a mini-art work i created, just out of the blue, after chewing the gum to my hearts' content. Have a look at this lovely little fish i created :)


Looks more better!:)


It turned out to be appealing and a good use of the silver-colored wrapper of chewing gum which normally lands up in the trash bin. Little did I know that most of the times, what we think is novel and not tried out before, turns out to be already existing. 

It so happened that I found online other instances of creating art through such wrappers:

I was really surprised, in part, because at least someone else thought of putting the ordinary wrapper to creative use (although it turns out the fish i created is indeed unique and novel :)).  Do have a look at what is the creative outcome of a simple paper, which many of us discard as being of no use!!
