Styrofoam cup Art





Way back in the olden days (1973) I made a series of incised and painted works on styrofoam coffee cups. I recently decided to revisit this idea.
Here are 2 images of my latest painted cup. I think that I might pour an inch of plaster into these cups to give them some weight.

Re: Styrofoam cup Art

Thanks for all the nice comments.
Pushingpixels - I hope that your "been there done that" gives us something in common and was not a "ho hum". I'd enjoy seeing your cup work.
