Nayan and Venus Paintings

Venus is an illustrator and her partner Nayan is a furniture and interior designer. Together they make hand painted miniature paper cut artworks and accessories. Paper art was their childhood love. They both used to make a lot of paper crafts as young children and did their higher studies in art & design. They both started their career together as miniature model makers. After working in the industry for some time, they started their Studio (NV illustration) in December 2015. Their first artworks in paper cut were miniature paper jewelry and display pieces. Then they started making more detailed dioramas and layered artworks in paper. They have continued to explore different possibilities in paper since than and have always tried to challenge themselves with more detailed and miniature art.
