How many faces do you see? 

What if we told you there are 30 people in one photo here? In 1999, Japanese artist Ken Kitano started an ongoing project called Our Face. It involves taking photographic portraits of people on 35 mm film and evenly printing their faces atop one another. Amazing results! http://www.ourface.com/english/

Amazingly intricate artworks by Sagaki Keita heart emoticon Worldwide classics made up of thousands of tiny cartoons!

Keita Sagaki recreates classic paintings by drawing them straight onto paper without drafting them first
His works can take a year to make. 

From a distance, they look like painstaking recreations of classic paintings like the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
But a closer look reveals these amazingly intricate artworks are created from thousands and thousands of childlike sketches.



And the 27-year-old, originally from Ishikawa, northern Japan, does not draft the pictures, which can take months to create.
He said: 'I don't draft my work, I just draw it in pen, directly onto paper.
'I usually use a 0.38mm pen, and sometimes ink thinned with water to achieve a grey tone, but that's all.'
Incredibly, Keita Sagaki's works, which can take almost a year to create, are completely improvised and drawn directly onto paper without being drafted first.





Despite his direct approach, Mr Sagaki, who lives in Tokyo, said that some of the pictures have taken him months to complete.
He said: 'It varies according to the size of the work. The Last Supper took the longest time. I drew it for approximately ten months.
