Paper Flowers: Stunning petal artworks crafted from paper shavings

So one day, he thought he would reproduce that stunning impression in a more crystallised format, using layers of paper, so that a flower blossoms when a pencil-shaped cylindrical scroll of paper is sharpened instead. The simple forms can be displayed on your desk or as an eye-catching wall decoration.

Speaking more about his process, he said: "These pencil shavings are only about 15mm-40mm in diameter, but a close look reveals individual shavings made ​​of thinly sliced, multi-layered paper. You can sense the materiality of the individual sheets of paper, both from the cross section showing the paper's original colour and from the printed side. Each paper flower will bloom quietly and softly on your desk. Depending on how you sharpen it, the shavings may be thick and heavy, or so thin as to be almost transparent, so you can't make the same flower twice. Once you've created one, you're bound to try again."
