Portrait of Jensen Ackles in Skittles for GISHWHES

well, this is not my preferred medium, skittles melt when you add glue, by the way. This is 2 x 2, with the skittles sliced in half. :D

Number one - LOVE IT!

Number two - how in the hell did you sit and slice Skittles? =O

I thoroughly enjoy the way you use so many different mediums!

That is brilliant. So simple yet it probably took ages and it's immediately recognisable as Dean!

Skittles is not very forgiving! Haha.

Hardest thing was cutting the Skittles, I just didn't have enough to do the whole board, and didn't have money to buy more. There were a lot of green ones left over.

We kept this, it's in the dining room, no one wants to get rid of it, though I'm not certain how it will keep???

You're BRILLIANT. And this should be shellacable to keep forever -- concentrated sugar is a preservative, after all.

You're amazing, you know that? Jen and I chatted about your amazing Skittle skills when we were working on GISHWHES stuff over the weekend.

Thanks!

thanks! :D

I've seen many versions of the same image, and all are almost all skittles, so this went more minimal! (which is not bad)
