Did You Know?
The Mona Lisa is the most famous painting in the world, valued at an estimated $800 million! In 1911, it was stolen from the Louvre by an Italian museum worker who believed he was returning it to its homeland. Today, it remains one of the most mysterious and captivating works of art ever created.
Hidden within this digitally hand-drawn word art, you’ll find fascinating facts about both the painting and its legendary artist, Leonardo da Vinci. Look closely, and you’ll discover words like “haunting smile,” “mysterious,” and “graceful,” along with phrases such as “bears a strong resemblance to the Virgin Mary,” “kept under bulletproof glass,” and “represents the idea of happiness.”
In total, there are over 55 words and phrases woven into this artwork, each one celebrating the artistry and intrigue of The Mona Lisa.
Every piece of my art is digitally hand-drawn, one letter at a time, with no word or phrase ever repeated. Depending on the complexity, each artwork takes between 6 and 60 hours to complete.
I truly hope this piece brings you as much joy as I had in creating it!
