]]> Most people use blank sheets of paper to write something down, whereas artists among us see paper as a unique medium that offers endless opportunities to be creative. Pippa Dyrlaga is one of those artists who create beautiful art out of paper, using traditional paper cutting techniques.

Dyrlagah has been practicing her skills for more than ten years and each one of her intricate paper artworks is made from a single sheet of blank paper.

Today we found a small caterpillar that had the most magnificent, thick, shiny black fur, on our doorstep. Probably trying to escape the constant rain we have had over the last few days. I've seen quite a few lately. Early autumn munchers. This is my piece the Lepidopterist and I bet he would know what type of moth it was. Google suggested an artic moth that lives in sub zero temperatures and is a caterpillar for 14 years but that's probably just my terrible Google skills because I'm pretty sure they don't hang out in tiny industrial towns in Yorkshire, England. . . . . . #lepidopterist #caterpillar #papercut #paperartist #paperart #robot #cutpaper #papercutting #japanesepaper #kirigami #illustration

“The simplicity of a blank sheet of paper appeals to me. Paper is used in so many aspects of our lives and used to communicate with each other, and I want to do this through my work. There is nothing as ordinary as a blank sheet of paper, but it has so many possibilities and can be turned into something beautiful or meaningful, without adding anything to it,” the artist wrote on her website.

Her art is mostly inspired by nature, and the most common motifs that appear in her works are plants and animals. Once there’s a clear idea of what she wants to create, Dyrlagah starts her creative process by drawing an outline on the reverse of the paper. Only then she starts cutting using a scalpel.  

Check out her intricate paper artwork in the photos below.
