Thomas Dambo
So the first artist I have is Thomas Dambo. He's a Danish artist known for one of his most popular pieces, Troll hunt. Interestingly enough, after high school he started to study to become a carpenter and then changed his mind and applied to Kolding School of designs. He has his own workshop in Copenhagen.

Chimeras!!

A chimera is a female, fire-breathing monster with a lion's head, goat's body, and serpent's tail (in Greek Mythology). However, the chimera we're talking about now is simply a hybrid. It is a mixture of two embryos mostly animals but human embryos are also a thing.  "Second,  chimeras  can arise when developing fraternal twins share a blood supply. This  happens  when the twins (who have different DNA) share a placenta and cells from their blood mix." The ways it's been depicted are the Greek Mythology monster.

Bert Simmons

Bert Simmons is a Dutch artist who makes lifelike sculptures out of paper. He uses technology (Bender) in order to map out the positions on the person's face using black dots to then print out a mask like paper, that he then uses many to create these life like sculptures. Example below: He uses the pieces created with Bender that are 2D in order to create these 3D sculptures. It can require countless hours of time to cut and put together these pieces, but they're really awesome. It's cool to know that there are other ways to help in making 3D art like this.  Below are some other pieces from his collection: This next photo shows a shortened version of what happens in the program:
