At first I took offense to these auto mechanics and their silly re recreations....but now it's kind of amusing and somewhat innovative....a new kind of art.
check out their work. Tell me what you think.

Auto Mechanics Hilariously Recreate Renaissance Paintings

US-based photographer Freddy Fabris had always wanted to pay homage to the Renaissance masters with his photos in some way, but he wasn't sure how until he stumbled upon an auto-mechanic shop in the Midwest. This led to a brilliant series of portraits with auto mechanics reenacting famous Renaissance paintings.

Hard to imagine how mechanics can keep those beards clean and neat like that.

No I had not heard about the auto mechanics who recreate famous paintings which would never be accused of being counterfeits Sgt Kelli Mays :-)
Reminds me of Andy Warhol's comments about 5 minutes of fame. He created some bizarre "art" so I thought it would be appropriate to mention him in this context. :-)
