Not many people think of a man sewing or crocheting, but that doesn't matter to Nathan Vincent.
Nathan Vincent uses techniques that are considered 'feminine' in society, such as sewing, knitting and crocheting to create his art. Even though he uses "feminine" techniques, the sculptures that he makes are indeed very manly. Check out the crochet beers, guns and the cigars in the featured gallery. If those aren't manly, I don't know what is.
