British micro-sculptor Willard Wigan and his miniature art is receiving big praise from gallery goers in the United States. The artist recently visited Washington, DC, drawing hundreds to the Parish Gallery to celebrate for the close of his exhibit. The works, which fit in the eye of a needle, are best viewed with a microscope.
The Gallery had Wigan's famous "tiny" sculptures enclosed in microscopes, the only way to view his creations since they are so small it's impossible to be see them with the naked eye.
