Vans Trash Art Submission by Rodney McCoubrey

Rodney sent me his entry for the monthly Vans trash art contest. The winner gets a pair of shoes.  Below is how he made it.  It blows me away at what he can make out of what people throw away.  My favorite shot is of the eye.  It is crazy how it really has a soul.  Great work Rodney.

For the kids out there that want to try this to win some shoes and save trash from the land fill, go here for entry and details.  Parents out there that would like there schools to do a similar art program, contact Rodney about setting up a day for him to do a work shop with the kids. 

Step 1: Collect the trash.

Step 2: Cut out the template.

Step 3: Base coat the wood and then paint.

Step 4: Add the trash to make the features.



Step 5: Add the Eye.


Step 6: Hang and add the bubbles.
