Jen Stark discusses her multi-layered paper artwork
Miami-based artist Jen Stark creates amazing sculptures using construction paper. More impressively, she does the whole thing by hand. Not only is it beautifully executed but her use of colour and proportion is fantastic, as this interview with her and behind the scenes look at the creative process reveals.
Finally someone has found a use for those stacks of colored paper that sit in every office and never see the light of day. I could stare at Jen Stark’s mindblowing paper sculptures for hours and still never be totally sure where she started. Jen is also a graduate of the Maryland Institute College of Art, where I’m currently teaching. [see more of Jen Stark's work]

Micah P. Hinson is like every rustic, broken down, and pieced back together country great that’s ever been. Only hipper and slightly less sombre. This track, Diggin’ A Grave, is a button-up hoe down with a classic pop chorus and a jangly banjo accompaniment. Yup, some folk have all the fun.
