Prince William and Kate Middleton Immortalized in Toothpicks by Steven J. Backman

San Francisco, CA - Mar 21, 2011 (PRN): Steven J. Backman, a San Francisco native, has been creating toothpick art for nearly 40 years. What began as an elementary school project has become a passion for creating one-of-a-kind masterpieces.

Steven’s latest work of art is a toothpick portrait of Prince William and Kate Middleton. The piece of art was created in honor of the Royal couple. They symbolize a new generation of prosperity for the people of England. From a likeness of President Obama to modern abstract art, Steven has received worldwide recognition for his creativity.

During a recent interview, Steven said “The portrait of Prince William and Kate Middleton I created from 137 toothpicks and glue took three painstaking weeks to make, but it was a labor of love. Even though the toothpicks were mounted on a flat surface, the likeness looks 3 dimensional.”

Some of Steven’s other well known works are showcased on his online exhibit http://www.toothpickart.com

Steven’s passion for toothpicks has led him to create other amazing sculptures, including a 13 foot long replica of the Golden Gate Bridge created from 30,000 toothpicks and glue. Steven is continuing his legacy by creating a new series of toothpick art.
