Color Pencil Sea Creatures!



I never imagined that color pencils could create such an artistic effect! Each of these art pieces can take up to two months to make. Artwork by Jennifer Maestre.
Notes by the artist:
(…) To make the pencil sculptures, I take hundreds of pencils, cut them into 1-inch sections, drill a hole in each section (to turn them into beads), sharpen them all and sew them together. The beading technique I rely on most is peyote stitch.
I’m inspired by animals, plants, other art, Ernst Haeckel, Odilon Redon, mythology. In fact, it isn’t easy to specify particular sources of inspiration. Sometimes one sculpture will inspire the next, or maybe I’ll make a mistake, and that will send me off in a new direction.
