British artist Justin Bateman, 47, has been creating intricate portraits out of pebbles and stones for the past five years. One example is a massive likeness of Frida Kahlo that could easily be mistaken for a painting rather than an arrangement of rocks. Bateman, who uses the handle PebblePicassos on Instagram, says that the first stones he sets down are always the eyes. "In a world where I have no control, I can choreograph this brief dance with the stones and find peace in the process."
