At A Single Div, web designer Lynn Fisher demonstrates the versatility of cascading style sheets, the markup that makes the web wonderful (or not, as the case may be).

Yes, this isn't super practical.
Yes, SVG is an easier and better medium for illustrations.
Yes, browser support is not broad.
Yes, it is super fun to do this anyway. ;)
