“ Pencil Graphite Sculptures ” is artwork are made from various type of pencil lead to creating a tiny sculpture. I cut various pencils in half and pull out the graphite from them to make the amazing type of sculpture

Using a knife and a tiny chisel I carved the surface of the graphites. After I finished carving, I stuck them together one by one with extreme caution and glue it. To create such sculptures we must have lots of passion and be very careful when working with the black lead of the pencil, as the smallest lack of attention can lead to cracking.

This artwork took me 48 hours to completed and I’m using 10 pcs 6mm Carpenter Pencil Lead, 03 pcs 2mm 2B Pencil Lead, 01 pcs 3.8mm Jumbo Pencil Lead, 10 pcs 1.8mm Jawi Pencil Lead & 02 pcs 0.7mm Mechanical Pencil Lead. The artwork size is 40mm X 59mm X 154mm
