Cool Artist

I used this same artist, Dalton Ghetti, for portfolio, but I thought his work was so interesting I wanted to post it here also. He practices carving a lot and has always been interested in it. He has an interest for small living things and wanted to challenge himself and carve the smallest things possible. That's how he got started carving pencils. He carves the pencils with a sewing needle and a small blade. His work is amazing. I can't believe he can carve things that are so tiny. My favorite work of his is the above picture with the giraffe carving. His pieces all have great detail, which is what keeps me interested in looking at them.
