For as long as art has existed, humans have been making sculptures and carvings out of stone. Some of the oldest examples of human creativity are small idol statues that seemed to hold some sort of religious value for our ancestors. As we have evolved, our ability to sculpt these stone masterpieces has also developed, resulting in mesmerizing feats of creativity and skill.
One sculptor, who is simply known on Instagram as TimberTints Studio, is an artist who is able to transform ordinary stone slabs into something remarkable. By using an impressive array of rock carving tools, including grinders, drills, and the classic chisel, he shapes stone into a miniature mountain, complete with walking trails, rows of trees, and beautiful buildings. The sculptor also renders incredible architecture, tucking entire structures away in mountainside caverns, including everything from small homes to sprawling temple complexes.
TimberTints Studio normally uses dark stone as a base for these pieces. This looks striking on its own but becomes even more so when it is juxtaposed with the white coloration that the artist paints on top of the sculptures, suggesting a light snowfall that has covered the mountain peak.
If you are wondering how TimberTints Studio is able to create such detailed carvings out of such limited space, you are in luck. Many of the videos on the artist’s Instagram page feature show the step-by-step creative process, and viewers are given the unique opportunity to see an ordinary stone block transform into something marvelous.
