75 Masquerading Mimes and Mimics

From Pooch Personification to Menacing Mimes

— December 24, 2009 — Art & Design
This cluster showcases the 75 best innovations in miming and mimicry, but I have to voice my thoughts on mimes -- mimics can wait until another time.

Sure mimes are talented, but why can’t they talk? What horrible act of evil have they committed that justifies putting yourself in a sound-proof, invisible prison of a box? I mean, damn guys, isn’t life hard enough without adding the whole muted existence with face paint aspect? Maybe I just don’t get it.

Anyway, from pooch personification to menacing mimes, check out the 75 masquerading mimes and mimics.
