The guy is a real artist, isn't he.

 I may get so drunk, I have to crawl home. But dammit, I'll crawl like a Marine.

That is amazing stuff.

There is a place in Prague that calls itself the world's smallest art gallery as all of its exhibits are miniature art. Quite amazing what some people can do.

Unbelieveable. He can't read or write but can grab pieces of dust from the air and pluck hair off of a fly's back to paint with!

The first thing I thought is, is it "Art", or "mental illness"?! LOL!

Honestly, it's freaking amazing, but my second thought was "Why?!"  I don't understand what would compel one to work in such a small scale that you could only see with a microscope?!I mean, you couldn't exactly have a "Gallery Show"?

Very, incredibly talented,...but also very weird!

Doog,

Why?  Probably for the same reason a person spends months running wire in a kit that won't be seen when it's closed up, or setting in  a display area.  Because they have the skill and knowhow?  And desire.

 I may get so drunk, I have to crawl home. But dammit, I'll crawl like a Marine.

 He thinks he accidently inhaled her. Big Smile [:D]   I guess at that scale, you need to be careful you don't get too close.

 

Question:  Do you enjoy this?

Artist: I enjoy it when I finish it...  Not working on it, no. It's misery...It's painstaking.

Wow. I think we can all sort of relate to that feeling sometimes, but I can't even imagine what it would be like to do this. Just one slight tremor of the hand and all that work destroyed.

   The man well deserves every dollar he makes from this.

"Why?!" 20,000,000 simoleans, that's a pretty good why. But the Charlie Chaplin on the end of an eyelash!! Holy freakin' cow!  It makes those 1/350 ship's crewmen look like garantuans.

I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
