Easter egg art celebrities by John Lamouranne

John Lamouranne, known as The Egg Man, has been painting and modelling famous personalities using eggs since the early 1970's. The 64-year old American builds his Egg Art using hollowed goose eggs for the head and warm modelling glue for any facial features. The New Orleans based artist also uses wooden arms from disused dolls for his egg people and then uses ceramic paint for the faces. Above is the egg art version of Prince William and Kate Middleton leaving Westminster Abbey after their wedding

John Lamouranne's egg art began after a trip to Disney Land with his daughter in the late 1970s, when he produced a simple recreation of Mickey Mouse, leading him to produce his first real egg artwork of The Beatles.
