Playful Paintings That Reimagine Celebrities, Movie Characters As Yellow Chicks



One Direction



Illustrator Paul Broughall from Ireland has been working on a series of funny paintings that playfully reimagined popular celebrities, movie characters and even subjects of classic paintings as yellow chicks, switching the noses of his subjects with little orange beaks and their complexion with bright yellow “skin”.



The tiny paintings featured in Broughall’s ‘Artistic Chicks’ project on Instagram might come across as bizarre, but they are a refreshing way to look at familiar pop culture images.



Check them out below.



We have painted 'The Birth Of Venus' as we see it.
