Manchester-based artist Helen Musselwhite is remarkably skilled at paper engineering. She creates pieces of art by combining hand cutting, folding and scoring using a variety of paper and card. Much of her work is inspired by the British countryside. On Creative Boom she says this about her creative process:
“My process starts with thumbnail sketches that are enlarged to work out layers or structure. Then I make detailed line drawings, which I often colour with marker pens; sometimes at this stage, I make scale models, usually in neutral papers, and particularly with 3D projects to work out construction and depth.”
More of her work can be found on her website, Instagram and on her agency, Handsome Frank.
