lint art by laura bell

Ripley's Believe It or Not recently acquired Laura Bell's piece, The Last Supper.  What makes this interpretation of the often copied masterpiece different is the medium. It was made entirely of...well, lint.

Bell, an amateur artist from Roscommon, Michigan, was inspired by a laundry lint portrait she saw about 10 years ago at the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Wisconsin Dells Odditorium.  In 2009, with some encouragement from her husband and a handful of lint from her dryer, she began creating The Last Supper for the ArtPrize 2010 competition in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
