The forever curious and productive artist found himself hurting his wrist from too much drawing so in order to keep on creating while his wrist heals he began using salt, which he carefully sprinkles from a paper cone or plastic bottle onto a giant canvas and then uses his fingers to redistribute it.

The new medium showed enormous potential and Tomic soon dedicated himself to exploring the possibilities of his new favorite technique with breathtaking results which earned him global recognition.

Drawing with salt is no easy feat – because of his incredible orientation to details, his realistic salt masterpieces can take many hours and days to complete.

In some of his videos, he can be seen shaping a grainy substance on paper using a bottle full of gunpowder. It is truly a sight to behold. Viewers will definitely be shocked when the light is moved closer to the page, and then the powder ignites. The flame trickles down like dominoes and leaves ash behind on the page.

Tomic says that it is challenging and he needs to do a lot of brainwork to get it ready. His pieces range from movie characters to other pieces. This artist lives in Norway and is the owner of a tattoo shop. When he isn’t experimenting with gunpowder, he draws tattoos. He is also known as an excellent artist with lots of expressive pencil drawing.
