In a series of books about the adventures of Dunno and his friends, there are two interesting characters, Vintik and Shpuntik, handymen. Here comes the American artist Andrew Myers can be called a Screwdriver. After all, it is from screws this jack of all trades creates 3D portraits of people.
Indeed, a real artist can paint a picture with anything. And in this quest, classic pussies and paints seem to be a thing of the past. After all, they are being replaced by completely new tools for fine art. Moreover, the word "tools" was chosen here for a reason. After all, the nameless artist, as we have already seen, managed to draw the La Gioconda using a pneumatic gun shooting nails, but Andrew Myers creates portraits of people using screws and an electric screwdriver.
Moreover, these portraits can be safely attributed to 3D art. No, to contemplate them, you do not need to put on special stereo glasses. They will look voluminous anyway. And the thing is that when creating these paintings, Andrew Mayer drives screws to different depths. So the correct proportions of human faces in these portraits are observed not only in the plane, but also in depth.
In total, the author spends two to three days and eight to ten thousand screws to create one such portrait. Moreover, when working on paintings, Andrew Myers does not use computers at all, he figures out all the stages of work in his head, only outlining the main lines of the future image with a simple pencil on the blackboard.

Wood Art: Mathematical Wood Harmony Cha Jong-Rye
Wood art is a trend that was in vogue back in the era of stone axes. Wood still remains an indispensable material for works of art - and even such non-standard ones as living wooden sculpture.
