4 weeks, 23 hours agoSculptor Willard Wigan makes some of the worlds smallest sculptures. Instead of getting attention for doing something massive, people are amazed by the how tiny they are. Most of Wigan's pieces fit inside the eye of a needle. To create these "micro-sculptures", he mostly uses grains of rice or sand as material and pieces of fly hair to paint. In response to how he does it, Wigan says, "Let me tell you, it's very difficult. Every movement I make is so small. I have to control my breathing and heartbeat - it's not easy! I usually work at night and have to make sure the dog isn't around."
