Shadow Artist Kumi Yamashita

This artist Yamashita has an amazing set of skills that I have no idea how you'd develop. And of course everyone knows those are the people the internet was made for. The whole "military communication network" was just a cover story. Anyway, I digress. She works mostly with shadows, but her pin/thread work and boot/ink stuff is equally amazing. Trust me, this woman's talents are preposterously awesome.

The video at the bottom helps explain what she does (and its a funny Japanese show too, yay!)
