New York sketch from memory & Butterfly scales picture

I just recently found out about this awesome guy who draws panoramas of big cities – all from memory! Stephen Wiltshire has just drawn an 18-foot panorama of New York City, after just a 20-minute helicopter flight over the city. And it’s all from memory! Stephen has also done panoramas of other cities including a 52-foot drawing of Tokyo, and a sketch of Rome so detailed that it even included the exact number of columns on the Parthenon. No wonder he’s now the envy of Artists everywhere! Check out the full story here.article-1223790-07013122000005DC-358_964x499

On a completely unrelated note, check out this picture of a close-up of a butterfly’s wing scales:

Wow. I didn’t know butterflies could have such great photo opportunities so close up! Remember to tell your friends everything you learned, and comment to let me know what you got from everything!
