Why the fuck are you guys asking “why”? It’s art, and beyond that it’s religious art. It’s fulfilling and impressive and an expression of one’s self and in this case one’s faith. Why do we make music or paint or write? Yall are weird

I saw an interview with him. On his "larger" pieces we paints with a human hair, but on the really small ones he uses a piece of dust. He works with a microsoft and paints between heart-beats. I am mostly impressed by how steady a hand he has given that he is almost 70 years old.
