NEW YORK, Dec. 19 (UPI) -- A pair of bored employees at a New York web design firm have been passing the time by recreating famous works of art using supplies found in their office.

Francesco Fragomeni and Chris Limbrick, who titled their project "FoolsDoArt," have been taking photos at their Squarespace office casting themselves as the subjects of famous works of art and using only objects found at work as props.

The pair have been posting the resulting images, which recreate works including Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" and Rene Magritte's "The Son of Man," on Instagram and Tumblr.

"The only rules are that all props must be things found in the office and all editing must be done on a phone," the men wrote online.
