Kyle Bean is a talented art director and maker of things handmade. His recent portraits made of pencil shavings have been making their rounds on the net the last couple of days, but his “chicken or egg” and “ocean of time” illustrations are equally cool.


Dalton Ghetti’s Carved Pencils

Dalton Ghetti has far more patience than I do. It’s easy to tell because, I’m hardly patient enough to sharpen a #2 pencil regularly, let alone carve a handsaw in to the tip of one. I’m in complete awe of his carvings though, and I’m sure you will be too.


Nathan W Pyle

Millions of computers are made each year and still no one talks about sustainability in the cursor industry. We should, because according to this poster they’re being cut down at an alarming rate. We’re in luck that Nathan W Pyle has designed this poster informing us about the massive cursor deforestation going on. Though his website is on the simple side, he’s got a collection of seriously funny posters. More after the jump.

UPDATE: Apparently shirt.Woot.com will be selling this as a shirt, so go buy one up.
