This dad will draw your face using nothing more than pancake batter

Brady Phelps never claimed to be an artist. But his Instagram suggests otherwise.

The self-named "pancake dad" has a knack for drawing cartoons, sports team logos, and incredibly lifelike portraits using only pancake batter.

Recently, Phelps helped raise over $38,000 for Charity: Water - a nonprofit aimed at bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries - by creating original flapjacks for anyone who donated $100 or more to the campaign. He's now going to continue until he raises $50,000.

And it all started from his inability to make a perfectly round pancake.

Tech Insider caught up with Brady to learn the tricks of his morning masterpieces.
