]]>Despite using unusual items like paperclips, fake pearls, and candy, Hillman manages to recreate classical artworks in such great detail that the viewer can instantly recognize them. For example, his version of Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring” is surprisingly on the spot despite being made with thousands of fake pearls and nothing else.
Even when Hillman’s recreations aren’t that straightforward, you are still left impressed with what he manages to achieve, considering the materials used. To recreate Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa,” the artist used TicTac candies that were arranged in their containers to reveal the image.
“I’ve been working on this piece for the last couple of months. I hope you enjoy, and thanks for sticking with me,” Hillman wrote in the caption of the photo.
So far, Hillman also recreated Grant Wood’s “American Gothic” using toothpicks, Vincent van Gogh’s “Self Portrait” using cereal, and Hokusai’s “Great Wave off Kanagawa” using paperclips. Check out these and more of his works below.

Hillman says he grew up fascinated with art history and that it seemed completely natural for him to want to create his own art. He just didn’t choose any traditional art medium, like painting or sculpture. Instead, he chose to use materials that reflect the time he lives in, which in his case are everyday objects you can find in a 21-st century home.
Hillman’s art has reached 341k followers on Instagram so far and his unique style can be described as hypnotic and satisfying. Hillman can be found on Instagram under the nickname @witenry and we strongly recommend taking a look at his art whenever you need to visit a calm and happy place.
