Art that packs a punch
Updated | By Sihle Mthembu
I love the rush of buying a new piece of art and then the sheer delight of seeing it in our home.
Some artists get a kick out of painting but Bart van Polanen Petel gets a punch.
Bart, a former student of boxer Joe Frasier, owns a boxing gym in Tilburg, Netherlands, that he has turned into an art studio.
He starts by wrapping a canvas around a punching bag. Then, he dips his gloves into paint and punches until — BOOM! — he's got another knockout piece of art.
I love this concept! How cool to be able to be creative while keeping in shape.
Guess who is going home to start throwing paint at her punching bag!
