The moon and the stars, surrounded by a light halo, the firmament, which consists of circles and spirals … "Starry night" is a sin not to lay out something rounded (many connoisseurs of Van Gogh use bottle caps for this). But how did no one think to make a copy of the famous painting using the quilling technique? However, why didn't I guess. The masters of paperwork are not asleep. American Susie Myers expressed her admiration for Starry Night with curled paper strips.
Vincent Van Gogh wrote The Starry Night in 1889, but the story of her incarnations did not end there. Modern masters embody the famous painting with new materials. American Susy Myers, who lives in Atlanta, offers her own version of the canvas, made using the quilling technique.
The author of the reproduction calls the process of his work "drawing with paper". By twisting thin strips, Susie Myers gets figures of different shapes, and then glues them to cardboard so that there are no gaps and the original sketches are not visible.
The dimensions of "Starry Night", made using the quilling technique, are 60 x 90 cm. How many strips of paper could fit on the dark blue cardboard, which was used as a background? Thousands, and they all went through the skillful hands of Susie Myers.
