Whoever said it was wrong to play with your food obviously didn’t think of Sarah Rasado, the self-taught artist who's been hard at work recreating some of history's most famous paintings using breakfast oats. With the kitchen table as her canvas, Rasado pairs a different oatmeal-friendly fruit with each work and frames it with an arrangement of cinnamon sticks. Rasado’s Portrait Oats project exclusively features the hits: Mona Lisa, Starry Night, Girl With a Pearl Earring, and others.

This, in turn, inspired her to further explore food as a medium—not unlike Klaus Enrique’s face portraits from produce. Hungry? Dig in:
