Artist Lorenzo Duran has taken OCD to another level. No, I’m kidding this is a true art. Dude hand cuts these intricate designs into leaves using a paper-cutting technique used in China, Japan, Germany and Switzerland to create CutawayLeaf Art. This reminds me of that incredible hat made by Philip Treacy …

Carpenter/Artist Dalton Ghetti can take up to two and a half years to sculpt the tip of a no.2 pencil. Seriously, this is something you do to bide the time in prison or something. But, Dalton is a free man and he does this! Patience is on his side for sure. He …

Alter Ego jewelry takes vintage toys, aka ‘toys that you banished to Sal’s boutique when you turned 12’ and makes them into jewelry with prices that make you go ‘b*tch please’. Seriously, they are really cool stuff, but with a drill bit, beads and some elastic found in your crafting …

I’m not sure who the artist is behind this, but dayum!… this is great. As you may have noticed the first ‘painting’ is “The Son of Man” aka the painting of the dude getting totally photo-bombed by an apple. The second ‘painting’ is one of those creepy, disfigured Picasso faces. …
