Melting Celebrity Portraits

These Colorful Celebrity Pictures Depict Stars Melting

Talented illustrator Rubens Cantuni creates wildly colorful celebrity pictures that depict iconic actors and characters melting. These fantastic portraits make these famous figures all the more interesting to look at.

These portraits include stars like Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, Bruce Lee and Darth Vader (to name a few). Pop art fans will love these funky celebrity art works. Each of these bright works has a colorful background and these celebs have been given unusually colorful faces. At about the jaw line the faces in these portaits become drippy and these celebs lose their mouths.

The Marilyn Monroe piece in particular stands out. Her hair is done in a lavender shade, as well as her skin. The background in this picture is aqua marine and it really grabs the viewers attention and holds it.
