Reduce, Reuse, Recycle…Repeat

This isn’t the first time I’ve posted about amazing recycled and reclaimed items, and it won’t be the last.  Today’s post comes via North Carolina artist Kent Youngstrom.  Yes, there is deep and symbolic meaning behind his works, but I love them for their rustic look and mixed media composition alone.  I mean a bike wheel on a wood plank painting?  Genius!  A new piece of art not in your summer budget?  Go green-er and make your own!
