10 Amazingly Beautiful & Creative Art Pieces That Are Made Out of Paper

What do you do with the pile of papers that you have at your home? You throw them! What else could you do? But this man designs some incredible pieces of art with the paper. Charles Young designs, cuts, and assembles paper for making the structure. When he was young, he used to make paintings based on the microscopic viral world.  All the models that he creates are designed by using 200gsm watercolor paper and  PVA Glue. Sometimes it takes him 60-75 hours to finish a single model. 

It is no doubt that artist Charles Young has amazed everyone with his incredible meticulously-crafted miniature paper metropolis. Till today, he has crafted over 700 miniatures. This includes urban monuments, carnival rides, architectural structures, and more. He creased and cut paper pieces to make beautiful structures. He even used simple stop motion animation techniques and designed moving buses, cars, and more. 

People were excited to know about this little paper world constructed by Charles Young, who followed a 365-day creative project idea to explore other architectural forms through the paper. He tried different models every single day, and this tiny metropolis has now grown to over 700 buildings. 

Scottish artist Charles Young designs incredible art pieces in his daily project Paperholm. He uploads new construction every day. So, here are some incredible paper pieces designed by Charles that could inspire you to think out of the box.

The Paperholm Project Was Exhibited in 2016

Do you know anyone who could compete for the level of Charles Young? Here are other artists who designed paper arts from a single sheet. The art of paper cutting involves simple tools like knife, scissors, paper, and glue. But it needs a creative mind to design incredible structures like this. 

Final Words

Everyone can’t be creative. It needs patience, and most importantly, unique thinking to design something different that no one else could think of. DIY activities teach you a lot. Instead of buying things from the market, why not everyone should try designing things at home first?
