This is a great story of a guy who creates art so small, you need a powerful microscope to fully experience it. As you can see in the photos below, he creates full characters that fit within the hole of a sewing needle.

I think my favorite part of the article would have to be:

Willard explains that he meditates to lower his pulse rate and, even then, he only uses his home-made scalpel between heartbeats. No wonder he has had some bizarre accidents.
"One of the worst moments was recently when I inhaled Alice," he recalls.
"I was just putting her in position when I breathed in at the wrong moment and she disappeared. That was nearly a month's work gone."
