What a year it's been for animals! Let's look back on 2014 and see which artists were inspired by the creatures of this world. Who created meticulously detailed ink drawings of winged insects? Which artist impressed us with his geometric paper animals? We'll remember this year as the one in which artists took everyday materials, like paper and metal, and created art that left us breathless. Can't wait to see what 2015 has in store for us!
