Deviant Art member 'WorkbyKnight' is responsible for these recreated famous art pieces, which he puts together using [everyday objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dish-pics). Some of the materials used in these vibrant mosaics include donuts, buttons and sewing patches.

This creative artist feels the need to make [pop culture references](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keiichi-tanaami-1) in his works but in an unusual way. Some of the iconic figures featured in his crafty mosaics include Marilyn Monroe, Katherine Hepburn, Abraham Lincoln and Vincent Van Gogh. These stunning art works look surprisingly accurate considering what kinds of materials are being used to create them.

Who knew that donuts could be used in such an artistic way? These brightly colored everyday object mosaics are a refreshing take on these famous art works. The only question I have for the artist is what happens when the donuts go bad?
