Paper Sculpture

Paper sculpture has been around nearly as long as paper has existed. I was inspired by Leo Monahan. I have one of his sculptures and have been admiring it for years. Finally with the idea of a rowboat as a metaphor for our lives, my first attempt began. Some paper is painted, some just folded, embossed, scored, or cut with an exacto knife. Some precolored papers are also used.
