French artist Gilbert Legrand takes common objects like household tools, garden implements, plumbing fixtures, paintbrushes and cleaning supplies — adds the occasional bit of extra material, and paints the resulting objects with faces and other characteristics — to produce his delightfully whimsical sculpture/assemblages.

In addition to his sculptures, he has a section in his site (under “réalisations”) in which he arranges objects against various backgrounds to form themed images.
