Amazing Brick Artists
by Jordan BrownCan Art Be Made Out of Anything?
When you think of visiting an art museum, you probably think of oil paintings and marble sculptures. But there's plenty of art that's made from more common materials, and you can see them at a modern art museum. Some artists today make art using things like rubber tires, masking tape, recycled computer parts, and even bubble gum!
An artist's medium is the material he or she uses to create a work. Any medium can work in the imagination of an artist. Before you throw out an old pen, cereal box, or candy wrapper, think: Could I make art with this?
