Very interesting piece of art, designed and manufactured by Leo Koolen, Dutch artist. In origin Leo Koolen was a flower stylist with specialism in decorating musea with flowers. This work is attractive as it is very colorful and due to the fact that there are this many many 3D disney and other figures on it you can look at it for hours. Leo also thought of the environment with this work. Some day he bought a box full of figures that have been used though all kept in one large and heavy box. His look on colors and flowering details Leo thought it would be very ‘nice’ to give the figures a new task in life: ‘cheer up te viewer’ and so he put up all the figures as a 3D painting art object. It is called ‘leuke kunst’ which means: “nice art”. He made about 10 pieces but all in different settings and measurements.
