Leia Keyboard Portrait
We’ve unboxed works by Oviedo, Florida, based artist Doug Powell before, but this portrait of Princess Leia is my new favorite.
Doug has made portraits from other odd materials, including a shotgun shell portrait of Clint Eastwood and a jigsaw puzzle portrait of John Lennon.
This portrait, however, uses 6,872 keyboard keys to make the galaxy’s favorite rebel.
If you look extra hard, you can even see “May the Force be with you.”

That’s not the only Star Wars reference hidden among the seemingly random smattering of keys; 27 character names are actually embedded in the portrait.
