Su Blackwell

Anyone who knows me knows I am a big lover of all things to do with nature. I love birdspotting and collecting books on birds eggs and british mammals, so when I came across Su Blackwell's work I was immediately struck by her papercut nature guides. Her work is stunning. How on earth does she create such delicate and intricate work?

Helen Musselwhite

I have previously featured Helen Musselwhite's amazing papercut artwork, but I was alerted to some of her new work by Hannah Nunn who sells some of Helen's work in her online store and retail shop in Hebden Bridge. I am a big fan of papercut work and also of the glass domes/cloches and specimen jars which keep popping up in photoshoots over the last year, but I have never seen the 2 combined or anything done with those domes as beautiful as Helen's work. You can see plenty more of Helen's work here

Roadside Projects

I came across these lovely papercut designs today by Jayme of Roadside Projects and wanted to share them with you, in case you haven't seen this wonderful work before. If you fancy some of these lovely artworks to adorn your walls, then pop over to the Roadside Projects etsy store.

I really admire artists who create work that has its own unique style. Its something I've found hard to do, i think I spend so much time looking at the lovely work of other people that when I sit down to design or make something, it often seems to sub-consciously become a watered down (much less successful) version of other people's style. I think I need to spend more time creating and less time on the computer, maybe then I would develop my own unique style over time... that might be pretty tough - I love looking at the work of so many talented people on the 'net. Maybe, a late new years resolution.

Elsa Mora

I came across Elsa Mora via a link on the InspireInspire blog. What a talented lady - not only has she created these fabulous intricate papercuts, but also can turn her hand to all sorts of different aspects of design - all with amazing results, from toys to jewellery and illustration. You can see Elsita's papercut blog here and all her other work here and purchase her work here.
