i love helen friel’s work. whenever i look at paper artists’ work it makes me think, “why can’t i make things like that with my scissors?” i look at helen’s beautiful silhouettes and am reminded that if i started cutting i would end up with something that looks more like this. so i was excited to see her new work online this morning. paper cut art is always such a nice way to start the day…



speaking of a great way to start the day, i couldn’t resist sharing these gorgeous paper cut designs below from aoyama hina and elsa mora (via crooked house).

That is truly amazing. I’m sure if I tried that my cutouts would look very similar to yours, Grace!
haha! I love the “like this” photo. Too true for me too.
I am in awe of her work and skill. Thanks for starting my blog-day with such quality and style.
do they even use scissors for this stuff? i thought used awls and similar tools.
Have you ever seen the work of jenstark? http://www.jenstark.com/sculpture_01.html
she is amazing! I want to own “Radial Reverie” – #16, and her drawings are amazing as well!
You should check out Peter Callesen. His work is absolutely breathtaking.

Amazing. The detail is breathtaking! I love the red & white one, as well as the “writing”
I love these! Wow, papercuts just amaze me, I don’t think I would have the patience :)
Papercut art is so mind boggling to me, but one of the genres I appreciate most. I can’t get over some of the intricate designs created by these amazing artists!
Your work is exquisite!
