Mind blowing tiny pencil carvings by Dalton Ghetti, a 49 year old carpenter from Connecticut. His sculptures often take years to complete mainly using a sewing needle or small metal blade to carve and no magnifying glass!
“The pencil tip is great; it’s like a pure, very homogenous material,” he said. “It cuts in the same direction, not like wood, which has a grain. But when I tell people how long it takes, that’s when they don’t believe it. That’s what amazes people more, the patience. Because everything nowadays has to be fast, fast, fast.”
