This is a selection of paper art that I have found to inspire me greatly, from the form to the colour and the skill involved this art is amazing it gives me something to aspire to.


This rather impressive paper design has been created by Julene Harrison, it's not just the design of this piece that impressed me it is also the skill that goes into creating something like this, it takes a lot of accuracy to cut something like this out without making a mistake. It's an unusual quote that accompanies the design, it's thought provoking ( it took me a while to understand it ), it's homely like the aesthetics suggest.


Yulia Brodskaya's artwork opened my eyes to the art of paper curling. I'd seen some paper curling art before, but never to this standard, she has been so creative with a seemingly mundane form of craft, I also love the type she has chosen to use, it almost appears as though the paper has grown over the top and around the words.


Peter Callesen is the artist behind this intricate design and many others. The skeleton is cut from just one piece of paper, the skill involved in this mini sculpture is breathtaking.


This work has been created by Alec Tree, he was at the New Designers exhibition last year, I was blown away by his artwork. Unfortunately seeing it online doesn't do it justice; each different colour has been individually cut out then layered to create a 3D / 2D piece of art work, his choice of fun content and colour makes his artwork almost perfect for my demographic.


This beautiful art work is created by Scott Campbell. It's made entirely from 1 dollar notes; a wedge of notes has been clamped and glued together then cut into with an amazing design like the one you see before you now.
