Creativity can be found everywhere and with everyday items. Thirty-one-year-old Turkish artist Nihat Ozcan has taken to building mini sculptures out of pencil lead. /VCG Photo

To finish a single piece, Ozcan would spend anywhere from five hours to three months carving the lead and transforming it to a vivid sculpture, using three basic tools – a razor blade, a sewing needle and a sculpting knife. /VCG Photo

So far he has finished 100 lead carvings, including a train running on a track, "hearts" locked together and even a model of the Eiffel Tower. /VCG Photo

Ozcan said that the lead carvings has widened his imagination and there are no limits, though one of the challenges is that pencil points can easily break. /VCG Photo
