There is something truly magical about watching a piece of paper and a bit of paste transform into a character with its own story to tell. Lately, my studio has been filled with the rustle of paper and the quiet company of these new sculptures. From the curious gaze of a dapper rabbit to the whimsical charm of handcrafted figures, I’m thrilled to finally share these latest creations with you. Each one is a labor of love, captured here in their finished form.
