Bosnian artist Jasenko Đorđević aka @TOLDart has been drawn to miniatures ever since he was a child. This fascination grew and has led him to create intricate sculptures from an unconventional material – the graphite tips of pencils. Take a look!
Đorđević’s incredibly tiny sculptures depict a variety of subjects including animals, flowers, and portraits.

The Bosnian artist uses an X-acto knife and a tiny chisel to craft his jaw-dropping art.

Using these simple tools, he sculpts their form, adds texture, and even carves tiny words into the thin stick of graphite.

These miniature artworks are expertly crafted it’s hard to believe they’re made from the tips of ordinary pencils.

From up close, they surely look like they’re made from entirely something else.
