Plenty of artists in the world use pencils, paint, computers, or any other number of common methods of expressing art. Not many, however, use precisely colored, cut, and crafted pieces of paper painstakingly put together in the perfect places in order to create 3D paper caricatures of celebrities! There is one artist named Lar deSouza that just so happens to create beautiful art of this nature. While some may have seen somewhat similar styles of art already, none have been quite so original or detailed as those of Lar. Let’s just say… South Park’s got nothin’ on these!

Very cool stuff! I do collages, much different from Lar’s work. Maybe if I get enough confidence I’ll post some.
