If you prefer not to get gooey, playing around with papier mâché might not be for you (I actually like the feel of it squishing in my hands), but you can enjoy this wide variety of papier mâché sculptures and keep your hands clean. Check out this video of a papier mâché artist's studio first, though. Fantastic, isn't it?

First...great quote by Morrissey. :-)
The video was great, too. Melanie Bourlon is a wonderful artist. If I hadn't actually seen her work with paper, I would have thought she was working with clay. (And it was neat seeing all the critters roaming around her studio.)
Can't choose a favorite amongst your examples...they're all good. But I have to say that the dinosaur boogles the mind!
What a wonderfully enchanting video!!
Isn't that precisely what o'BOMBa doing? Indifference?
Need some new fangled thots, ideers, names? "Step right up, laddy!!" cries the carnival barker: if I'm a sower, we plant the Seed; if I'm an artist, we write the Word:
I actually saw Seventh-Heaven when we died: you couldn't GET any moe curly, extravagantly-surplus-lush Upstairs when my beautifull, brilliant, bombastic girl passed-away at 17.
"Those who are wise will shine as brightly as the expanse of the Heavens, and those who have instructed many in uprightousness as bright as stars for all eternity" -Daniel 12:3
Here's what the prolific, exquisite GODy sed: 'the more you shall honor Me, the more I shall bless you' -the Infant Jesus of Prague.
Go git'm, girl. You're incredible.
See you Upstairs...
I won't be joining'm in da nasty Abyss
