done with bottle caps.

I believe technically it might be Folk Art

...or at least categorized as such.

depends on how you view it (and the creator's intent)

to someone it probably is..

a lot of that sounds familiar; from my Art History classes in college

because it took time and involved creativity and putting colour together to tell a story...it is Art

just like aboriginal paintings... with dots... and hand prints!!!

Well clearly they bit the real artist's subject. It's Vincent's work, not theirs. I hate biters.

if it has a function, it's not art. By that definition alone, it's art

yes and no. hope this helps!

I've just parcelled up 4 dozen bottlecaps to send to BlackAdder.

It's great to know they have a home to go to now!

noooooooooooooooooooooo...i found it on "thechive.com" there's a whole collection of "art" made with bottle caps. I'm just not sure if it's art. it's very creative.

I did however receive bottle caps from australia, for some reason.

A lot of Mexican/Chicano folk art uses bottle caps too.

Yes it's art but it's not completely original art.

Of course it's art. Maybe not original or something you like, but it's still art!

Is paint-by-number considered art? My grandma has a paint-by-number Last Supper on her kitchen wall that was done by my mother. That don't make my mom Leonardo.

I put this in the same category.
