A young artist has managed to create a name for himself making masterful reproductions of classic masterpieces.
But what makes this even more amazing is that he created those reproductions using everyday objects that most of us wouldn’t bother taking a second look at, including Tic Tacs and paper clips.
Take a look at his masterpieces below.

Adam Hillman, 24, from New Jersey has been making his unique reproductions for the past 10 years and has reproduced such masterpieces as Vincent Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” and Michaelangelo’s “Creation of Adam.”
The young artist also has a signature style called “Object Arranging” that requires the careful manipulation and positioning of everyday objects through a combination of sculpture, photography, and painting in order to create a stunning work of art.
Adam said: “I’m inspired by art history. I have a ton of art books that I look toward for inspiration, as well as just shopping around at the grocery store or Staples.
“My process usually involves thinking of an idea, finding out which object I can easily obtain fits it best, and then executing it using the cheapest means possible.
“On average it used to take me around three hours, but over the years that average has increased to over 15 hours, as my recent famous painting reproduction series is very time-consuming.
“A part of me feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders when I complete a piece, but I also can’t help but start thinking of my next idea.”
“It’s a constant cycle of creation, so in some ways, it’s hard for me to step back and admire what I’ve done without immediately moving on to the next project.
“I get a lot of comments about how, despite the disorder in the world, my photos act as a little spot of calming order people can focus on instead.
“Likewise, a lot of people are amazed at the aesthetic potential of the everyday things I use, so a lot of times I inspire them to either make their own creations or at least allow them to re-imagine their capabilities as artistic objects.”
