It’s been more than four years since I checked in to see what paper artist Jeff Nishinaka has been working on and when I did I discovered beautiful paper dragons in his ever-growing portfolio.
Perfect timing. Yesterday marked the Chinese New Year and it just so happens that 2012 is The Year Of The Dragon.
Nishinaka’s work continues to inspire and bring joy. May the Year Of The Dragon bring that and more to you and yours.
Nishinaka talks about the dragon in Chinese culture in this video.
Watch Nishinaka at work in this time lapse video of the artist making a sculpture that took 9 weeks to complete – fascinating.
More new work on his website
P.S.
Notice anything different today? Thanks for your patience as I change things around a bit, do some housecleaning and get DAM ready for this Year Of The Dragon. The new look should be complete in a few days. More to come soon.
I don’t often say this, but Holy sh*t!
Wow!
