Wanna lick Kim Kardashian? How about Taylor Lautner?
Now you can.
OK, we kid. But artist Jason Mecier has created portraits of Kim K. and Taylor made entirely from about 500 pieces of—ready for this?—Red Vines licorice. Both works are part of We Like to Watch TV, a new San Francisco art show of celeb portraits by Mecier and his partner, painter Adam J. Ansell.
How much do the cavity-inducing works go for?
Way more than the price of a bag of candy. Try between $1,000 and $2,000!
As happy as we are to see a yummy Lautner, we're sad to report Mecier has yet to create one of Robert Pattinson.
As for Mo'Nique, her portrait has already been purchased by the Ripley's Believe It or Not museum. If only she was hanging at the Louvre next to the Mona Lisa!
Ansell's painted portraits include Atlanta Houswives star NeNe Leakes and New Jersey's resident vixen Danielle Staub. We gotta say, they've never looked better.
