i was just playing around. >> why use ketchup and french fries to paint a picture? as a portrait artist jason grew tired of drawing with charcoal and pencil. he looked for inspiration and one night found it -- in his happy meal. >> i came across it by accident eating french fries. i saw that i could manipulate the ketchup with the french fry and it could be like a brush. >> jason wanted to paint something that related to the tools he was use, so he decided to paint his own version of the movie poster for "super size me". >> he related to the ketchup. it gave a medium and interpretation to it. >> with a web cam recording he prepare it is ketchup, picks up a fry and begins painting. >> mcdonald's french fries as a paint brush. unbelievable. >> ketchup may work as a condiment but it proves tricky as paint. >> unlike paint, the ketchup was a matter of how thick it was on there. if it was a very thin layer it showed up as a light color because the background showed through. if it was piled on thick it was the darkest red. it was more sculpting the actual height the ketchup stood off the panch. >>
