Cyprus artist paints Darth Vader portrait with coffee for Star Wars Day
Published in Weird News
NICOSIA, Cyprus (UPI) -- An artist in Cyprus celebrated Star Wars Day by using a mug of coffee to paint a portrait of iconic antihero-turned-villain-turned-antihero Darth Vader.
Video of the painting session, posted to YouTube by Upcycle.Club, shows artist Maria A. Aristidou sketching some lines on her canvas before bringing out her paint -- a mug of coffee.
Aristidou's time-lapse footage ends with a finished portrait of Luke Skywalker's dad.
"It's the 4th of May, and today we are celebrating, 'May the fourth be with you,'" Aristidou said using painted sheets of paper, referencing the popular saying that inspired the unofficial Star Wars Day holiday.
