Since one of my first words was "book! book! book!" it should probably come as no surprise that 
I love anything to do with paper. Whether it's an old magazine advertisement, a calling card or a piece of Japanese rice paper, I LOVE paper. The look, the touch, the texture, the color all come together to create something more tempting than Bresler's 33 flavors - to me at least.This is why I love stumbling across a new paper artist. I wrote
about an amazing scherenschnitte artist in the spring, but Helen Musselwhite takes paper cutting to a new level - literally - by adding dimension to her work. She uses the textures and colors of the paper to help bring depth to her creations. From monkeys to 
birds to flowers and trees - the variety of her subjects is just incredible.Take a walk through her online galleries and see for yourself how talented she is. I find myself gasping as each new story unfolds in a picture. I'd usually say my favorites are the ones with birds, but it's really too hard to pick a favorite with this artist - they're all beautiful!
It's truly a place to find inspiration... but be careful not to lose yourself under a glass dome.
