The 20 foot high by 13 foot wide replica of the painting was created with 3,604 cups of coffee and 564 pints of milk. Artist assistants stand next to 3,604 cups of coffee which have been made into a giant Mona Lisa in Sydney , Australia. The 3,604 cups of coffee were each filled with different amounts of milk to create the different shades. Each cup of coffee was used as one pixel in the image and had varying amounts of milk in it to give it a different shade, from white to black and it took 8 people 3 hours to create it. This is an amazing portrayal of the Mona Lisa and amazing art made from non-traditional mediums.
