Toothpick And Nail Mosaic Art

· Filed under Arts

Saimir Strati is an Albanian artist who hammers tens of thousands of nails and toothpicks into a wooden board to create his awesome mosaic art. It’s amazing how one has the patience to create such art and it was even reported that Saimir Strati is attempting to mount a steed chart together using 1 million toothpicks. Some of his best works include the portrait of Leonardo Da Vinci created using hammered nails and the galloping horse using toothpicks which are shown with 19 more pics of the artwork after the jump.

Well…I can’t find the words to express the genius of this artist!! I have never seen anything like this and i have visited a lot of art galleries around the world. I am awe struck by the final product and the unique method he has applied. The portrait of Da Vinci is a fitting tribute to the great man . I think he would have been suitably impressed by this artists wonderful God- given talent. It is so wonderful that he is able to share it with the world through the internet. I would absolutely love to view his work. I know I would be mesmerised by it !! It has made my day just looking at his work. I expect a miracle every day and this is it!!! He is a miracle!!

He is a genius at what he does, both Mosaics earned him records in the Guinness Book of Records. His latest work (2008) which he named “The Guitarist”, and with which he earned another record in the Guinness Book of Records is composed of around 300,000 corks. A great piece of art too! He is thought to be working on another piece but has not disclosed any details yet as to what it is. Well done to him.
