I entered the papercraft punk rocker skull in Skull-A-DayPapercraft skull contest.
You have until this coming Sunday Oct 5 to enter also, and win a copy of the Skull-A-Day book SKULLS!

I think I’ve finally beat this one into submission.

The color’s a little off in this pic, I ‘ll try to get a better one, when the light’s better.

Jean Shin turns trash into sculpture. Some amazing works, including the Sound Wave below, and others made of pill bottles, computer keyboard keys, etc.

Need a pattern idea for something, a background for a scrapbook page or collage, or a webpage? Right here there’s thousands of them. All copyright free (in Australia–your mileage may vary, but it looks like most of them are old enough to be public domain, in the US, anyways). Here’s a couple of samples:

From Art Review – ‘How Soon Is Now?’ Exhibition at the Bronx Museum of the Arts – Review – NYTimes.com by Roberta Smith

“How Soon Is Now?” suggests that there is no point in spending time on “professional development” or learning how to advance one’s work in the marketplace if artistic development is not well under way. That requires lots of long, hard looking at all kinds of art, in all mediums, from all periods and cultures. Aspiring artists need to expose themselves to the sheer intensity and variety of art, to learn what they love, what they hate and if they are actually artists at all. New York’s galleries and especially its great museums offer ample opportunity for this kind of self-education, which leads to self-knowledge. Anything is possible when artists set to work knowing they have something they urgently need to say, in a way it hasn’t quite been said before
