So Often,

I remember going to events,

 and watching a 'balloon man' making balloon poodles to give away to children,

 but these balloon creatures take the art to a new height,

 they are the work of Masayoshi Matsumoto, the Japanese artist uses a variety of opaque, metallic, and translucent balloons, we have featured his work before,

each of the balloons take 3-6 hours each, depending on how many folds and colors the animal or insect might require, his subjects can be almost anything from tree-swinging monkeys, beetles, to fungi,

and this one reminds me of a guest we had some time ago, You can see more of his balloon sculptures on Facebook, Tumblr, and Instagram.
