The intricacy of this art, simply cut out of paper, left me completely stunned at the amount of patience and effort that went into creating something so small, yet so beautiful. It is the work of Indian artist Parth Kothekar, who began creating her little wonders following a period of experimentation with graffiti stencils.
A thought occurred to her - what if she could create stencils, but in an inverse fashion? That thought was the catalyst for the artwork to come into being, and following further encouragement from her friends and family, she went professional and began to create her unique paper artwork for a living.
She says she is intrigued by the fact that she never quite knows what the final output is going to be - she can only make a calculated assumption of how a piece of art might look. Take a look for yourself:
