A self-taught artist has crafted a colorful menagerie of fanciful and realistic origami creatures. Some are palm-sized, some life-sized, and all represent the artist’s personal philosophy: “If it makes you feel happy, go for it!”
Romanian artist Patrick Alberto Vraja, 25, grew up in the city of Sighetu Marmației and recalls being entranced by paper art as a child. His first creations included “cute dinosaurs,” animals, and everyday objects. Today, he crafts animals, human figures, and mythical creatures with jaw-dropping attention to detail.
