Recycled-Material Art

Drawn, the illustration and cartooning blog, isn't really as narrowly focused as its self-penned description might suggest. Witness these marvelous hubcap sculptures by an artist named Ptolemy Elrington highlighted today. They remind us of nothing so much as our own Doug Makemson, who similarly incorporates found metal industrial objects into large-scale animal sculptures that nonetheless highlight their origins with a visible logo here and a gear there. Elrington's Web site, with a larger gallery, is here.
