Amazing sculptures of dino-STRAWS and other creatures crafted using rice stalks

Artist Amy Goda used left-over rice straw woven around wooden frames to create the huge sculptures

Hay! One of the dinosaur sculptures made from left over rice straw
You could call this creature a tyranno-STRAW-rus rex - because the huge sculpture was made using just rice stalks.
Each of these intricately designed sculptures is made from left-over rice straw woven around wooden frames.
Artist Amy Goda helped create the awesome models in Niigata Prefecture, Japan.
Amy's current sculpture muse is dinosaurs, as she created two amazing and huge pieces of art.

Her two dinosaurs have attracted a lot of attention, judging by the amount of comments she is getting on Twitter.
The sculptures can be found at Uwasekigata Park in Niigata City's Nishikan Ward, where they will remain until the beginning of November.
