People more talented than me: Kamiya Satoshi

The world has about six-and-a-half-billion people more talented than me.

One of them is Kamiya Satoshi who is a young origami genius. His work is showcased at folders.jp (the site is in Japanese but select Gallery from the box at the top left which has additional English titles for the models; some of the most amazing are 2005/Ryuzin 3.5, 2002/Ancient Dragon and 2002/Wizard) and his patterns for most of the models can be purchased.

Now remember Origami is the art of folding paper.

Now check out this YouTube-hosted video which showcases the man's top three models and shows him working on them.

People more talented than me: Guido Daniele

The world has about six-and-a-half-billion people more talented than me. One of them is Guido Daniele, an artist.

His most striking work is a body painting technique which renders astonishingly convincing animals on human hands. Below are some of my favourites but you see the full set on his official site under the Body Painting section. Please note that some of his work features nude models and may not be safe for work.

Now the really amazing thing he does is anamorphic illusions drawn on the pavement. Respect.
