French Artist Turns Everyday Objects Into Playful Characters

With a creative eye, the casual observer can espy characters or faces in the everyday objects around us. French artist Gilbert Legrand takes this further by painting and modifying mundane everyday objects to turn them into cute, playful characters and give them new life.

Legrand lets his active imagination soar by painting small details onto these everyday objects to help us see them as he does. With the addition of a face and maybe some arms and legs, a paintbrush can become a mangled fox, a hinge can become a shady salesperson, and a juicer becomes a woman emerging from a pool.

Hopefully, Legrand’s wildly imaginative creations will help you find the fun characters hidden around you! Scroll down to the collection of unique artworks, “Everyday Objects Into Playful Characters,” and we promise you will never see a household item the same way again!
