Talented Artist Jennifer Maestre, originally drew inspiration from the sea urchin to create a form with her pencils and from there, it took off.  On her site she says that many different animals and objects stir her creativity, sometimes, she gets inspired by a previous sculpture.  Mistakes can be a fantastically new turn in the forms she constructs.  This is an extract from her site: "To make the pencil sculptures, I take hundreds of pencils, cut them into 1-inch sections, drill a hole in each section (to turn them into beads), sharpen them all and sew them together. The beading technique I rely on most is peyote stitch."
