This piece is made of toothpicks, held together only by friction and gravity.
My Reaction:
I think that it is amazing how simple materials can make such an amazing work of art. I like how these pieces show that you don't need fancy types of medium to create your work with for it to look good. I find Tara's style very unique from other artists, and very interesting to view.
