Last week, I shared paper-crafted illustrations by Estudio Guardabosques and this week it’s the handiwork of Maëlle Doliveux.

I especially like how Maëlle uses light to add drama and enhance the cuts that she’s made in the paper. It gives them a nice 3D feel — like a relief sculpture.
Cut paper comics! I love this idea:
