He has a wonderful story of accomplishment with seemingly insurmountable odds. As a retired educator, it makes me cringe at hearing what horrible stigmas teachers can place on children. I am so grateful that he was able to overcome all of this and make such a success of his life. It is wonderful to see and share. I am sad, however, for many children who never were able to be this strong. We never realize the impact we have on another. A very good reminder of this....thank you, Willard, for your magnificent artwork and the lesson you have shared.

I'm sure Willard would have had a harder life if he hadn't discovered his art. And sharing this with the rest of us makes it even more special.

What a way to turn things around. Hopefully those teachers see his success now. He is way more talented than they. If only we all could turn our circumstances around like this artist does. That in itself is very admirable. Of course, the art is so good it speaks for itself. It’s so wonderful that something so great can come from unhappiness. What a way to turn things around.

I saw a piece on television quite a while ago about Willard's microscopic art, and have remained utterly fascinated. But I could not think of his name and did not know how to find out more. Thank you so much for bringing his tiny little artistic work back into my world -- and thank you to you and to Willard for the story of triumphing over mistreatment and ignorance!

It's always good to see people move from the traditional ways of art to something new. And this is exactly that. Very cool. Pretty amazing.

I've never seen or heard of anything like this. Wow! The sculptures are so tiny I can't even begin to imagine how the man accomplishes this. Diversity truly is a wonderful thing. I'll have to look him up now. :) That is simply astounding! I’ve never seen or heard of anything like this. Wow!
