Using eight trays of paint, a large-scale canvas and a football for a brush, Shanghai-based artist ‘Red’ Hong Yi produces a colorful portrait of three World Cup stars.

She first uses yellow pigment to outline the three players.

Can you tell what it is yet? ‘Red’ Hong Yi starts dribbling in some detail.

 She then begins filling in their facial features and brightly hued jerseys.

Nearly there: Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, Brazil’s Neymar and Argentina’s Lionel Messi.
