Iranian artiste unveils famous painting of Lionel Messi

Meanwhile, Fateme Hamami is famous for her paintings and she drew that of former Barcelona captain Lionel Messi who she painted an adorable portrait of and then posted online.

The 28-year-old is said to be having 85% paralysis of her body, but she has not allowed that deter her as she engages in paints to survive.

And this came just days after an adorable portrait of Cristiano Ronaldo surfaced online which was also painted by her.

The Iranian artist paints using two toes on her right foot and sometime ago she painted portraits of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and received a personal promise from the Portuguese football star.

Barber draws Ronaldo’s face with scissors

Legit.ng earlier reported that art is life and people around the world are getting more creative on a daily basis.

A video has emerged on social media in which a barber showed his creative skill.

The barber drew an image of football legend Cristiano Ronaldo on the left side of a model's head. The image, which was drawn with scissors, looked so real that one would think it was painted.

In recent times, barbers have been showing their creativity and making a point that barbing has gone beyond cutting and hair dyeing.
