Her grandfather has been giving her National Geographic editions since she was a little girl, and she’s kept every single one. Not only does she appreciate their sentimental value, but she’s also transforming them into stunning masterpieces!

Already a talented painter, Madeline decided to branch out and get creative with her magazine collection one day.

She began tearing small colored pieces from the pages and arranging them into mosaics. As you can see, each and every one of them is incredible!

She shared a sweet video on TikTok to celebrate his 92nd birthday and wrote, “Thank you, Pops! I do it because of you!”
