Among his sculptural works are two incredible series of carved book landscapes and structures entitled Biblios and The Great Wall, where the dense pages of old books are excavated to reveal serene mountains, plateaus, and ancient structures.

Jennifer Maestre Master of the Pencil Sculpture | EPICr
Behold the artwork of Jennifer Maestre, the artist behind some of the most spectacular pencil sculptures you will ever see. Rather than carving the pencils, which is the subject of my “pencil carving art” post, Maestre cuts and sharpens hundreds of colored pencils to create fluid forms. On her website she writes that she was inspired by the fluid shape of sea-anemones, it turns out that fluid shape translates nicely to colored pencil tips. Each of the pencil sculptures are mind boggling, which is to say that I have no clue how they were made. My suspicion is that there is a wire frame to which the pencils were glued or otherwise affixed. But, regardless each sculpture is a wonder to behold and speaks to the true pencil artist that Jennifer Maestre has become!

Sketchbook Secrets: 50 Beautiful Sketchbook Scans
The sketchbook is—to borrow a term from the new millenniums’ popular discourse—an artist’s BFF. It’s a diary for the visually inclined—a place where artists can most comfortably explore their personal thoughts, work out their visual needs, practice, maintain a visual history, and hopefully create the unpolished work that will eventually lead to amazing work for the world to see. But, sometimes, when we’re lucky, we get to see the process. Below are 50 beautiful sketchbook scans from 35 talented artists.
