Artists have many ways of expressing their creativity. This UK-based artist, Ptolemy Elrington, makes an homage to nature by taking old, discarded trash like wires and hubcaps and creating incredible, intricate animal sculptures.
The artist told Bored Panda: "I come from an artistic background and was always encouraged to be creative. I’ve been avoiding a regular job for many years and making a living doing what I love seems to be working out for me."
The artist loves nature and feels very strongly about environmental issues, which plays a big part in the work he creates.

It amazes me that you know the features of so many animals and birds.
You ate my mother and I'm here for revenge, THROW the water guys!
I heard her say she doesn't like us because we run all the other birds away.
I need help. I just fell in love with a heartless, piece of metel. I named him Rover.
Mother and child. Use your imagination too, he's standing beside her.
As much as I love the art work I still don't want somthing's head hanging on my wall.
Not only a great way to recycle but so well done. I've seen things like this before but never this good. That FOX caught my breath. Those Sharks are amazing and using the emblem for eyes is super cool.
They are even more stunning in real life.
These are amazing
