I Am A Paper Artist And I Make Realistic Animals And Insects From Paper (24 Pics)
About two years ago, I started to make paper sculptures with fine colored paper. First I made plants, then insects and one gecko.
When I began working with crepe paper, I started with creating traditional flowers, but I was curious about what kinds of unique art I could do with it. So I made a not-so-traditional plant, the Venus flytrap. I had a lot of fun with paper folding the details! Next, I tried to make paper art insects, even though the insects I chose are not too far from plants since they are disguised as flowers or sticks.
After that, I challenged myself to make a gecko, and I was quite happy with how it turned out. Recently I got my first commission for a mantis. I have many ideas on what small animals to make next, and now I only have to find the time!

This is absolutely amazing! I really thought the Mantis was real! Even after the close ups. There is such crazy attention to detail! WOW!!! This must have taken a long time. You have a real talent!
Knowing me, I'd probably freak out after seeing them and smack them to infinity and beyond.
Your work is fantastic . I seriously doubt there is anyone else in the world who can do this and do it this well!
You are a brilliant artist!!! I really want to see more...Maybe bees, wasps, butterflies???
Those are so good that I would hesitate touching them! It would be nice to see how it's done!
So very talented! I can't imagine the hours spent making these and your level of satisfaction in completing them. You are awesome!
HOW in the world????? Amazing, gorgeous, extremely talented and detail oriented.
Stunning. Had to look close at the amazing attention to details. Good luck, hope you have many more requests.
These are absolutely stunning and beautiful. I honestly had to do a double-take on the paper sculpture of the mantis religiosa because it looks so hyper realistic. Amazing talent!
Thank you everyone for the nice words! I will try to make more soon and share them here!
That's totally awesome and amazing how and way to be an artist, Love it
