There are some mediums as an artist that you just never touch. I would have said any kind of "paper craft" would be mine. It brings to mind die cut scrap-booking and fussy old Victorian valentines. Well a few artists I've come across recently have totally changed my mind!
Last night I saw a few episodes of Isabella Rossellini's Green Porno if you haven't seen this go & watch it now!
I have always loved Isabella Rossellini and this made me love her even more, funny and informative. But, the thing I couldn't stop being amazed at was the sets & props. I am pretty sure they are mostly made with paper which (to me anyway) is an amazing feat!
The artist's name is Andy Byers and I can't believe I've never come across his work before.
Yup, those are leaves! I guess this isn't "technically" paper art but Jenny Lee Fowler does use paper in her cutwork as well. I love these & was really excited to find out she is teaching a few classes at a new shop I'll be teaching at too (more on that soon!)
The work below is the AMAZING work of an artist that goes by Crankbunny. Her work is so beautiful & intricate it was really hard picking which images to post. I always loved pop up books or any kind of book that had a 3d quality
