This guy amazes me. An England artist with a learning disability (dyslexia), Willard Wigan has a passion for all things tiny— and I mean TINY. His microscopic art, made from sugar crystals and dust particles, has been sweeping across the nation and was once described as “the eighth wonder of the world.”
See for yourself. The Wizard of Oz cast in the eye of a needle (pic taken through microscopic viewer).
Simply fascinting.
un. be. lievable!
