I absolutely love this piece. The scale is perfect, the colors, the flowers, the house, the trees, the night sky and of course the cutest cat bus in the world....I could go on and on.
Many of these pieces were done for the same couple, but I think this was the first color piece I did for them. He was *very* pleased with this piece as was his wife.
OMG, what a coincidence! I've recently read in the newspaper that this movie is going to be shown on cinemas in my country, even though it's made in 1988.
After I read about this a couple of days ago, I've wanted to go and see it. Hasn't come (yet), though. That movie looks terrific!
...and the same with this piece. You're a huge talent!
My Neighbor Totoro is definitely worth seeing; a little slow at times (in my opinion), but a beautifully animated film. Hayao Miyazaki is amazing. I've see nearly all of his films and they are all excellent.
Thank you very much. I wouldn't recommend watching; it is similar to watching paint dry.
As for how it is done, the very abridged explanation is each part of the image is cut from the appropriate color paper, shaped and mounted to each other and to some foam core supports.
Excellent! Good luck! I use knitting needles and small wooden dowels to shape the paper after it is cut. I also use methyl cellulose (acid free) glue, but Elmer's will work just fine too. I hope you will post your results.

When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
"Hey you got some cat in my bus"
Beautiful piece, btw.
Very few people can make art with chunks of paper.
You have a rare and lovely talent.
