As an Art-savvy, I keep searching for artists who are doing incredible work and each time I assume that nothing can't be better than this. But the very next day, my assumption is proved wrong and I encounter some really great works by brilliant artists. One of them is Nick Gentry who is doing a splendid job. He uses floppy disks as his canvas and creates masterpieces out of them.

"His portraits use a combination of obsolete media formats, making a comment on waste culture, life cycles and identity", as described on his website. Nick is a British graduate of Central St Martins and has exhibited in the UK, USA and Europe. Not only he has created a buzz in the arts industry by his astounding paintings but also making a significant contribution in saving the environment by using recycling products as the basis of his artwork.

You can also contribute by sending him your old floppy disks. Check out some of his creations:























































By seeing the beauty of Nick's work, I have realized that what makes an artwork incredible is not the material used but the dedication and belief in your work. Nick, heads up! ;) Check out this video:
