It seems particularly incongruous to have a ship as large as the Titanic
on a pin point. Initially, Guy thought the metal was a javelin point,
or at least a dart.
In 2007 Willard deservedly received an MBE for services to art from HRH
the Prince of Wales. Shortly after his award, Lloyds of London
commissioned Willard to create a replica of their iconic London Building
as designed Lord Richard Rogers. However, Willard's masterpiece was on
a pinhead.
Also in 2007 the former tennis player David Lloyd purchased Willard Wigan's
collection of micro sculptured art. It is reported that the collection
was valued at £11 million. [$16 m]
Willard Wigan's story is an inspiration for those who are not good at
school. In a nutshell, Willard cannot read and write, so he has compensated by creating
delicate
tiny sculptures. What's more he has not established himself as a
master of his craft, but he has established a new branch of art:
micro-sculpture.
