What an amazing talent. It incenses me when teachers write off kids because their minds don't work the same way as the majority of others.  >:(

I think the one video said he sold his collection for 20 million. The microscopes are probably included. :)

In this  longer video Willard tells more about his life and how he got  started and tells more detail about his techniques.  I didn't post this at first because it does not show any of his work until about 2/3 the way thru the video and most would lose interest.    http://www.ted.com/talks/willard_wigan_hold_your_breath_for_micro_sculpture.html
