IT'S JUST PAPER

By a paper artist .There is nothing simple or ordinary about his paper art. Where we would simply use a piece of paper and a pair of scissors, Calvin uses everything you could possibly think of to carve, cut and rip perfect details onto his creations. The motifs are all wildlife, and that must be one of the hardest categories of things to make with paper since there are sometimes impossible details on animals. These details are amazing and one can't even fathom the time it must take to create these masterpieces of art.


















































 And here is the artist




Humor --

An old man and  woman were married for many years, even though they fought with each other.
Whenever there was a confrontation, yelling could be heard deep into the  night.
The old man would shout, "When I die, I will dig my way up and out of  the grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"

Neighbors  feared him.  They believed he practiced magic because of the many  strange occurrences that took place in their neighborhood.

The old  man liked the fact that he was feared.  To everyone's relief, he died of a  heart attack when he was 98.
His wife had a closed casket at the  funeral.

After the burial, she went straight to the local bar and  began to party as if there was no tomorrow.
Her neighbors, concerned for her  safety, asked "Aren't you afraid that he may indeed be able to dig his way out  of the grave and haunt you for the rest of your life?"
The wife put down her  drink and said, "Let him dig.  I had him buried upside down.
And  I know he won't ask for directions."

  1. Someone asked the artist how he was doing, and he said, Ah, man, I'm just drowning in paperwork!

  2. I wonder what his floor looks like. Bet the paper fluff rivals Pippa's fur bunnies.
