Quilled “U”

This piece of art is placed inside a shadowbox frame of 15×20 cm, behind an acrylic glass window.

This frame is a combination of Quilling and Watercolors. I used watercolors to paint the background of some of the flowers and on top of this watercolor background I glued paper strips of 3mm in width. After making the center piece, the letter 'U', each flower and leaf and branch is individually and carefully crafted to surround the letter and make it stand out.

A lot of hours and patience are put into creating such a piece, taking up to 16 hours to make one.
