Now that I'm back to working a part-time job with not many hours, I've been considering taking paper art commissions. I just...don't know where to start. I'll welcome any tips and tricks and pricing suggestions from people who've done this before. I'm clueless!

Your work is fantastic!! You cram such a high level of detail into paper, which is MIND BOGGLING. Gorgeous work, really.

I did have a question. I've dabbled in paper art before but it didn't hold together real well. What type of paper and adhesive do you use?

Thanks so much! :>

I've just been using Scotch double sided tape, glue dots, and regular Scotch tape. So far...so good. I'm always afraid it'll start falling apart, but it seems to do just fine.

I never thought I'd find another paper artist. I picked up paper art more recently and have been having a blast with it.

Your work is amazing and I can't wait to see more =)
