Mindblowing Lego art

Lego_art_1.jpg Nathan Sawaya is so much obsessed with Lego that he left his lawyer job in NY to become a master lego builder. Sawaya now has a studio in the big Apple with over 1.5 million Lego bricks which he uses to create jaw dropping structure like these. (More images after the jump) Lego_art_2.jpg

    You are the Lego King!

    But seriously-this is the best example I've ever seen of the relationship between math and art!
    They should teach it in schools.........

    seriously? a guy quits a job to become a lego artist? big money in this?

    Our son is handicapped and has the mind of an 8 yr old and plays with his legos everyday building things other than the models with instructions. He spends endless hours playing with them. He and I are amazed at your talent. You are truly a master at what u do. We sure enjoyed viewing your masterpieces. Thanks for sharing your artwork. Absolutely AMAZING!

    not everything's about money...
    the guy's obviously passionate about what he does that money can take a backseat

    wow i wish i could do that ( i have a LOT of legos)

  1. jeremy on "

    i agree with leon and ryne. its not always about the money. but im sure that he could sell his lego art if he wanted to so yeah, there is probably money in this. also, I too have a lot of legos. i wonder if they would let me do this at work when we arent busy???

    I thought this would be so sad and a bit silly but oh no, it's amazing!!!

    Still, leaving his job as a LAWYER to play with Legos all day... I'm not sure if that's idiocy or ingenious.

  1. Sammy!!!! on "

    I still play with my legos every-so-often and ive tried making stuff like this
    its fun and (in my opinion) thats all that matters

  1. paula on "

    Wow, and Amazing is really the only things that i can think of right now, i'm speechless. This is just unreal, and fabulous!

  1. Bob on "

    Nice, but does he have to be in (almost) every photo?

  1. PEDRO!!! on "

    I'M SO JEALOUS!!! I CAN'T EVEN DRAW THAT STUFF AND YOU MAKE IT OUT OF LEGOS!!!

  1. Rolland on "

    Lego hires artistic people to do this......wish they'd hire me.....get paid to play.

  1. Duenpen Parpiput on "

    that.. awesome

  1. Brian on "

    That is incredible. That would be a great way to make a living in my opinion. A unique style of art. And I think that he is in alot of the pictures because it gives you a perspective on how large they are.
