]]>Known for her vibrant paper flowers, Paluska believes in the value of one-of-a-kind pieces made by hand rather than mass-produced objects. The owner of Revery Paper Flora, her paper flowers are a great addition to any home without the tackiness we often equate with artificial flowers.
κ³ μμ (@reverypaperflora)βI found my style through a lot of practice,β Paluska shared in an interview with Paper Talk. βI make a lot of my flowers over a hundred times and through all those renditions, they evolve into something better, not just because of the practice but I am able to see it more clearly.β
Realism and color are two important criteria. βColor has also become integral to my achieving realism,β says Paluska. βFor the majority of my custom projects, I will always start with white paper so I can achieve the exact shade necessary.β
Based in Washington, DC, Paluska first discovered a love of paper flowers when she was a young mother in search of a creative outlet. βI was never a crafty or DIY type of person so Iβm not sure why I thought doing something like this would be fun,β she admits
βI found them appealing initially because I hated spending money on fresh flowers and thought paper flowers would be a fun alternative for me to have flowers around my home that I wouldnβt have to take care of.β
The end result, situated at the meeting point between nature and paper, is both realistic and artistic. You’d want to check her out.

]]>Working mainly with fine crepe paper, each piece begins with some background research.Β “I do copious amounts of research on my subjects both before and during the making process,” writes Redlinger on her personal website, “preferably by studying live plants and flowers, but also from online image searches and combing through books and magazines.”
Her paper creations include succulents (which she aptly nicknames “the anglerfish of the plant world”), mushrooms, and flower bouquets. In fact, the very first paper flowers she made were her wedding bouquet and her husband’s boutonniere for their small City Hall wedding in San Francisco.
Based in Boulder, Colorado, Redlinger says that when she’s not making paper plants and flowers she might be found working out in the garden, joining her husband in chasing their two young kids and our dog around the house, or reading a good SciFi book. Ideal lifestyle, if you ask us!
Take a look at some of her recent work in the gallery below.
Iβm looking forward to Nasturtium, all the zinnias I can get my hands on, and lots of snapdragons – because they all bring so much joy and the snapdragons lasted longest in the garden last year. . . #paperflowers #underthefloralspell #paperart #botanicalart #botanicalpickmeup #slowflowers #thebotanicalseries #papersculpture #paperdesign #papercraft #paper #madewithpaper #imadethis #marthastewart #dsfloral #wildforflowersThe post Stephanie Redlinger’s Paper Botanical Art is Jaw-Dropping appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.

]]>βWe pause to look at a flower, pick up a feather, touch a leaf, or comment to a companion about a particular specimen,β notes Wood in her website. βNatureβs beauty is fleeting and ever changing in its magnificence. My work speaks to the notion that everything is temporary.β

And while flowers are always in fashion, she tries to stay away from trends, inspired by classic botanical identification guides and photographs. βThe world of plants is huge, so I try to stay away from trends and follow my own path,β she stresses.
