An artist has NAILED IT by creating beautiful and perfectly precise artwork using a hammer and 30,000 nails. From an elegant elephant to a stunning image of Queen Elizabeth, David Foster, 52, creates his outstanding artwork from the comfort of his own home studio in Warrington, Cheshire. The artist uses up to 30,000 nails in each piece and every image showcases David’s extraordinary precision.
