Here at Brothers Brick we mostly highlight works made out of Lego pieces. But occasionally, an inspired individual does something unique and passes outside of our usual boundaries. This painting by Mike Yoder, a long-time Lego fan and excellent builder, is inspired by the Brick, Modified 1 x 1 with Studs on 4 Sides, aka, the Travis Brick. It’s amazing to see Lego transcending its plastic nature and informing other media, and I, for one, hope to see a great deal more of this sort of thing.
Love this! Thats a fantastic piece of work. Being a graphic designer and painter myself, I too love seeing Lego transcend the toy itself. Here’s a couple of examples of Lego movie posters I’ve done myself. Keep up the good work!

It’s actually kind of sad… I love the travis brick, seeing it demolished brings up tears in my eyes…
