    @fullywoolly Paper art. Artists had a group there to protest against "fake artists" (in reality Asian companies behind) selling bad quality for dumping prices, buying search results. There were different actions like cooperated shutdown of shops for several days with a protest banner. But Etsy had closed ears. At that time, many real artists left. Then they got more junk. The protests were in some media, perhaps you still find infos.

    @NatureMC thanks I go searching. I have a commission of my dog's portrait that was made with pieces of cut paper some of it hand dyed from what the artist told me when I took delivery. Probably not your kind of paper art but I still find it amazing.

    A sketch of a black flat coat retriever with cut out zones that represent different shades of highlights that will be filled in with different color paper. It is partially filled with the nose, eyes, and some surrounding fur filled in. Mostly blacks and greys with a brown gradients in the eyes.
