:: The Tip Of the World
It’s not often that I blog about something I’ve seen elsewhere; but on the rare occasion I see something amazing I do it. Artist Dalton Ghetti’s tiny sculptures carved out of the fragile tips of pencils have truly knocked my socks off!
Dalton’s technique makes the work even more interesting, as he refuses to work with a magnifying glass, and only uses three tools – a razor blade, sewing needle and sculpting knife. He explains his process: “I use the sewing needle to make holes or dig into the graphite. I scratch and create lines and turn the graphite around slowly in my hand”
