One can only wonder how a barely one-centimeter long pencil lid can be used as an art canvas, but a 23-year-old miniature micro artist from Hyderabad has done the unbelievable by carving both Lord Shiva and Gautam Budha on it. Dheeraj Kolla, an event manager by profession, carves different types of designs on pencil lids and continues to explore various outlets for his talent. In my engineering, I wanted to be something special so I browsed and found this lid carving. Later on, I too gave a trial on pencil lid art. Now, I am even doing eggshell carving and plan to do book carving,” Kolla told ANI.
