doing so much with so little

if you thought a piece of paper couldn't be used for much, I think peter callesen would beg to differ. if you check out his site, you will see some amazing creations using a single sheet of paper. some are a4 size, some are larger. the result is the same - amazing creations. here's just one amazing example, but you should definitely check the rest out:


it's so detailed, so careful, so beautiful. I wonder if it's possible to buy some of his art...

  1. Awesome!

    Reminds me of:

    In the Bahá'í Cause arts, sciences and all crafts are (counted as) worship. The man who makes a piece of notepaper to the best of his ability, conscientiously, concentrating all his forces on perfecting it, is giving praise to God. Briefly, all effort and exertion put forth by man from the fullness of his heart is worship, if it is prompted by the highest motives and the will to do service to humanity. This is worship: to serve mankind and to minister to the needs of the people. Service is prayer. A physician ministering to the sick, gently, tenderly, free from prejudice and believing in the solidarity of the human race, he is giving praise'.

    (Abdu'l-Baha, Paris Talks, p. 176)
