Kevin Champeny uses tiny hand-case objects to make beautifully sculpted mosaics. The New York-based artist crafts miniature objects by hand and arranges them into detailed pieces that demand a second look. Each project takes several months to complete because of the meticulous attention to detail. His Flag piece is an American flag composed of 44,450 red, white and blue army men. What remains, a giant skull, is made up of over 35,000 tiny flowers. [via Kevin Champney]
