Surreal Paintbrush Portraits by Alexandra Dillon

I first noticed the surrealist art of Alexandra Dillon on Pinterest.

Avant-garde and edgy, she paints portraits on old, 

found objects such as paintbrushes or padlocks.

The unique personality of each one emerges as she begins painting.

Another of my posts with more padlocks here:

Collections: Unusual Vintage Padlocks

Sometimes it's just fun to see some vintage curiosities.

In this case, old antique padlocks in odd shapes and designs.

Unusual and decorative, function meets art.

An edgy painted padlock is featured in my post
