Toothpaste Paintings by Cristiam Ramos



Mexican artist Cristiam Ramos is famous of his unique paintings. Once again he shows his painting skills to get your attention. This time he used toothpaste to paint to create celebrity portraits. Some of his notable works include paintings of Robin Williams, Miley Cyrus, Emma Watson, Lady Gaga and Sir Elton John. They've all been crafted using various brands of the oral hygiene product.



Painting with toothpaste is a lot harder than it sounds, and Ramos spends up to 200 hours and 30 tubes on a single piece. "It is very difficult to make these as the toothpaste becomes very sticky and dries quickly," he explained. "The smell can also be overwhelming, which was challenging during the long days of up to 10 hours painting."
