I don’t think I’ve used a pencil since the creation of the pen… but that’s just me. Clearly artist Robert Levine has found a definite use for pencils, creating sculptures from large numbers of pencils.
While some of the sculptures from Robert Levine date back to the early 2000s, it’s a cool ongoing collection of pencil art. While I’m not about to pick up a pencil anytime soon, it’s nice to see the pencil has a safe new home.
