Miniature masterpieces on grains of rice

Self-taught artist from Taiwan Shin Chan Fong creates stunning miniature masterpieces using only the rice grains and sand.

58-year-old Thai in early childhood began to show interest in calligraphy and painting. However, having served in the army, Shin went to work in a factory of Engraving and Printing. It was here that he "met" with all sorts of tools for engraving, which later proved useful in his creative activity.

For over ten years, Chen after work rose in his own art studio located on the first floor of his house, where he worked on the creation of amazing miniatures. A man had to spend a lot of strength and endurance, but the result was worth it. With its unique talent and hard work of Shin received worldwide recognition, while being only an amateur, not a professional in the business.
