Artist Jane Perkins's pieces include her own versions of Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers and Claude Monet's Water Lillies.
Jane, 51, uses objects including buttons, marbles, plastic cutlery, dolls, shells and jewellery to complete her look.

Ex-nurse Jane, from Kenton, near Exeter in Devon, said: "They are classic images which are familiar to everyone, but making them out of plastic objects gives them a modern twist.

They are bought for up to £2,000 by fans across Europe.
