Hand-tastic Art

We've discussed artists and their mediums before - balloons, cakes, even chocolate. These images are ones where artists use their skills to create images on hands. We cannot imagine the amount of patience it takes to create such a masterpiece! Maybe a roving hand artist would be a cool idea for Mitzvah entertainment?

We recently ran a story on AlphabetPIX which is a very cool company that makes custom artwork from architecture-inspired photos. I -- Mitzvah Mom In Training Erica -- liked the idea so much, I decided to order one for my husband. I used the simple interactive Website to choose which letter photos I wanted to spell "SALMON" my last name. I chose the frame and matte and could see what the finished product would look like on the screen. It was so easy! And the best part was -- I ordered it on a Wednesday, and it was sitting on my doorstep two days later! I'm including a photo of what it looks like above our piano. Oh, my husband loves it too!
