THE INCREDIBLE ARTWORK OF........

We do believe what we see, but being fooled by our own eyes is so easy sometimes. I am showing you today some stunning pieces of work by Calvin Nicholls, the Canadian amazing artist who gives a totally new life to paper. In fact he creates wonderful 3D handiwork representing animals and landscapes. The amount of detail that we can see in each of his work is absolutely incredible.

Each small piece can take many weeks to complete. While the bigger ones can take months, or even years. His work has been featured in National Geographic, as well as numerous galleries and art shows all over the world. He uses X-acto knives, scalpels, scissors, glue and paper in the construction of his critters. Fur is an especially difficult texture to create, so animals make for a distinct challenge. Feathers are also very hard to replicate.
Just look at the texture on each animal, they almost look like they could be alive!. His amazing works really worth your time.

The commitment these outstanding pieces of art require, is just mind-blowing. Talent like this just doesn't come around very often. Can you imagine how frustrating it would be if all these tiny pieces of paper and the detail of the critters get messed up?. I hope you'll enjoy his work on these few photos I have posted below.
Thank you for your read and views.
Lisa.

Absolutely amazing and beautiful. Words are not adequate to describe them.

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Fossil hi to you too,

Thank you so much for your wonderful comments. You are so right, these pieces are just to be framed and kept preciously. As on the photos, Calvin does frame them too but it needs a special glass frame as all his works are on 3D. Thank you for your appreciation Fossil, am glad you like my present blog.
Thanks again and greetings to your wife. I wish both of you a beautiful day.
Lisa.
