Nathan Sawaya, a 36-year-old former lawyer has stunned the world with his incredible LEGO artworks.
If giving up a successful career in law that paid a six figure salary, to follow a childhood dream doesn’t spell passion, then I don’t know what does. That’s exactly what Nathan Sawaya did, but he managed to build himself another career brick by brick and now he sells his LEGO masterpieces for thousands of dollars.
Right now, Nathan has an inventory of 1.5 million LEGO bricks to use on his sculptures, at his New York studio and says his largest artwork was made up of about half-a-million bricks. His LEGO works are now as valuable as they are beautiful, selling for more than $10,000 each.
After posting his early work on the internet, Nathan Sawaya started getting orders for his art and realized the huge potential of his work. Now he has even created a piece for Donald Trump. he believes there is nothing he can’t create out of LEGO.
This isn’t the first time Nathan Sawaya’s work has been featured on Oddity Central, we posted some photos of his amazing LEGO cello, a while back.

Having just visited Lego Land California, the constructions there seem positively boring when compared to the sculptures above.

Nathan, your work is pure genious. I have a grandson 9 whose been putting together Lego Bionicle figures since he was 5. Wait until I show him your work! I’m sure he will be inspired to extend his love of building to a higher level. He wants to be an architect.
wow Nathan, i love it, a lot of work and how inspiring! Thanks for sharing this.
WOW! These are amazing!
