A student of the University of Benin, Joshua Egesi, has made an outstanding portrait of his Vice Chancellor using 6000 bottle covers.

A first look at the photo will make an observer think they are looking at a painting on a smooth canvass, but the painting was actually done with several bottle covers.

Josh, a student of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) used the 6000+ bottle covers to create a 11ft by 7ft portrait of their Vice Chancellor.

The young man who revealed the photo of the portrait said it’s the biggest bottle cap potrait in Africa.

Social media users have since showered praises on Josh who they claim is one of the most talented painters in Nigeria.
