DENVER - A Denver artist has created a portrait of Florida shooting suspect George Zimmerman using more than 12,000 Skittles - the candy that 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was carrying when Zimmerman fatally shot him.

The 3-by-4-foot portrait was done by 31-year-old Andy Bell, an art student about to graduate from Metropolitan State College in Denver.

Bell titled it "Fear Itself." He tells The Denver Post he's not judging Zimmerman but commenting on the divided opinions about the case.

He says, "It's a symbol of what happens when you let fear rule your life."
