Quilling art

This is my art work that i wanted to share with you today.

Most of us already know what is quilling and how it is done. But i was surprised to know the history of quilling.

It all began in Europe, when they started printing a lot of books. They used to cut and trim book edges after binding them so a lot of extra waste paper was generated ...So someone started using thin strips of that waste to decorate covers of the books.
That's how it started!

Nowadays we use a tool made of a broken needle to roll and quill the paper and stick different patterns of rolled paper on the canvas.

Now if you see my work, i like to use contrast and bright colors for quilling.

First i took a canvas board around A4 size! And simply painted it with poster color. After it dried i started rolling small grey and black color rolls for seed part of the flower. Then i rolled yellow paper into bigger rounds flattened those and twisted them a bit to create "s" shape. And just stuck them with fevicol.

And we are done with a beautiful flower!

Hope you like my art! Thank you
