Beauty's in the eye of the beholder. But with Willard Wigan's work, you need a 
microscope to decide for yourself. 

"When people see the artwork, it totally blows them away," he said. "You know, 
it's like a punch you don't see - that's the one that knocks you out." 

Wigan is a micro-sculptor. With his creations, the smaller, the better, because 
the bigger the impact. 

How small? Most pieces can't even be seen with the naked eye. Some of them are 
only three times the size of a blood cell. 

And each piece - fairies, animals, movie stars - typically sit framed in the 
eye of a needle, or on the head of a pin. 

How small can he go? 

"I could probably go down to, say, five microns," Wigan said. "The tip of a 
human hair."
