Virginia based artist Eric Standley creates these beautiful laser-cut works of art from paper. By layering pieces of paper and cutting them with mind blowing complexity he creates pieces of art inspired by Gothic and Islamic architectural elements.

The depth of the beautiful architectural work he is inspired by is clearly mirrored in his equally as complex and delicate laser cut designs. The layering effect really does create another element to the art that keeps you looking in awe.
