Danish artist Jacob Dahlstrup Jensen's amazing works consist of intricate drawings and amazing installations. Recently, the talented artist released a video of him drawing out a beautiful floral skull that took 100 hours.

Jacob Dahlstrup Jensen squishes the video into time-lapses, shortening that 100 hours into a 30-second short. See this amazing process in the featured video for yourselves.
