This Artist Cleverly Fills Photo Cutouts with Real-World Scenes

Seattle-based artist Rudy Willingham has an ongoing series in which he cuts out parts of portrait photos and fills them in by holding them up in front of carefully chosen backgrounds.

Willingham gets the backgrounds to work just right in becoming everything from feathers on Big Bird to sunglasses to dresses.

He also uses the sun to highlight parts of his photos.

We previously featured a stop-motion clip Willingham created of LeBron James dunking.

You can find more of Willingham’s work on his Instagram.
