When the Farmers Are Also Artists Raise your hand if you thought that this was a mural or a painting at first glance. Well, to most people's surprise, it is not, but it is a different type of artwork. Some rice farmers in Japan take their farming skills to a new level by planting different species of rice in a specific pattern in order to create this incredible piece of artwork that is only able to be seen from high places. It is not only colorful but also almost unbelievably precise. How was this made from just different rice crops? This is so incredibly impressive when you think about the amount of planning and work that went into creating and maintaining this beautiful design.
