Micro-Sculptures Willard Wigan (born in 1957 in England) is the creator of the smallest works of art on Earth! His miniature sculptures include The Titanic on a pinhead, a cat on an eyelash and the six wives of Henry VIII in the eye of a needle. Some art a lot smaller than the full stop at the end of this sentence. Wigan started making tiny things when he was a child. People made him feel small because he had learning difficulties, so he decided to show them how significant small could be! How does he create his unbelievable micro-sculptures? He slows his breathing, then patiently sculpts or paints between heartbeats, so that his hand stays perfectly still. He spends months carving his tiny creations from materials such as toothpicks, sugar crystals and grains of rice and then paints them with a tiny hair such as an eyelash. So how do visitors to Willard Wigan's exhibitions view his work? Through a microscope, of course!
Almost all teenagers have their idols or celebrities that they admire. i'm also a teenager and my favourite star is keanu reeves. he has always been the best actor for me. i like the films, where he stars, his outer look and personality, his interviews and nearly everything that is connected with him. in my opinion, he is an extraordinary person. i know that he comes from a problematic family. despite this, he managed to reach enviable heights. reeves was born on september 2, 1964 in beirut. his mother was a costume designer and his father – a geologist. he left the family when keanu was only three years old. after the official divorce his mum married many other men, so keanu had numerous stepfathers. he and his sisters were mainly raised by grandmothers and nannies. their family often moved from one place to another. finally, they settled down in canada. keanu's acting career began in early 1980s, when aged 15 he played on stage mercutio's part in “romeo and juliet”. he appeared in many commercials, short films and theatre productions afterwards. he also worked as a correspondent for one youth program. today, keanu reeves is one of the richest and most popular actors of hollywood, but he lives in a small flat and wears humble clothes. during his life and career he faced many tragedies. once he lost his best friend, who died of overdose. he saw his girlfriend die in a car accident. his younger sister was diagnosed with leukemia. although she felt better after some treatment, keanu donated 10% of his takings from the “matrix” movie to hospitals that treat leukemia. he seems to be a sad but very talented and self-sufficient person. once he was seen eating a cake in the streets in honor of his birthday. he doesn't have fancy clothes or bodyguards, he doesn't brag about his achievements. perhaps, that's the reason why many people respect and admire him, including me. сподіваюся підійде
