Paper artist and illustrator Yulia Brodskaya has created a wonderful series of quilled paper illustrations.
She found her passion in creating these intricate paper artworks while exploring the different methods of illustrations—with just two simple materials, paper and glue, she carefully cuts and bents strips of colorful paper into vibrant, three-dimensional designs.
She has since been commissioned to create paper crafts for famous brands from Starbucks to The New York Times Magazine and many others—during her spare time, she returns to creating portraits of aging people, inspired by the fear of her own mortality.
