Kyle Bean’s art caught my attention immediately not only because it was paper, but because his folds are precise. I love crisp folded edges on paper. Kyle’s specialty is designing hand crafted models, set design and art direction. He is known throughout the world and has worked on a diverse range of projects. Obviously, Kyle Bean has talent and a great imagination. His studio is on the sea in Brighton and he also works in London.
Meirion Pritchard, Art Director at Wallpaper, said, “Whatever the project and whatever the medium, Kyle always gives you that little bit of magic.”

Egg Shell Art – What Came First?
I think I like the Louis Vuitton Suits (I love a man in a suit) and the chicken made of eggs. I’m sure you already know why I love the chicken so much. 😉
What is your favorite art piece by Kyle Bean?
Oh my gosh , I love the suits!! The chicken is definitely something you would like, lol. I love the plane! Great post Sher. Talent is everywhere!!
I’m glad you enjoyed it, Mom.
I thought it was so amazing that he made a CHICKEN out of the EGGS. Just TOO cool!
Amazing!!! Yes, my favorite is also the chicken 😉
🙂
I think I love the very first one, Black and Gold Windows and then the pencil shaving portraits. That is so cool.
Have you seen the guy who does the sand art in seconds on America’s Got Talent? He is very clever.
If we are getting in to art, and I understand your theme here is paper art, I would have to hit the glass art world, starting with Chihuly, as I am enamored by him and could spend hours staring at his work.
The Salvidor Dali Museum is also somewhat local if you want an education!
The artist said that Black and Gold Windows was one of his most difficult to create.
I don’t watch much TV, so I haven’t seen the sand art guy. I’ll have to YouTube him. 😀
Good Morning,
Chickens give me the heebie jeebies…trauma from childhood..lol. I had to look at Kyle’s work two and three times. I think the watch is pretty incredible. I have always found them to be an timeless accessory whose style is a excellent reflection of the person wearing it. Therefore, one should have many. I can’t believe the kids of today can’t tell time on a watch. Oh and the silver nail polish in the photo is funky too!
Thanks for injecting some culture into my day! Have a happy one…
I love the silver nail polish too!!! LOL It immediately caught my eye. I bet Alyssa would flip if I painted my nails like that LOL
Please, Redhead Riter, don’t ask me what is your favorite art piece by Kyle Bean? I have been up half the night trying to decide. I like them all! 🙂
Must I choose a favorite? 🙂
Well, okay, it’s 4:08 A.M. PST and I really want to go to bed. So, I’ll choose my favorite Kyle Bean piece and call it a night! My favorite is The Future of Books Paper Art. I guess I chose that one because I’m a writer. 🙂
My second favorite Kyle Bean piece is Paper Music Manuscript Covered Instruments! I guess I chose that one because my son is a musician. 🙂
My third favorite Kyle Bean piece is Killing Time Paper Watch. I guess I chose that one because I’m tired and I want to go to sleep. It is now 4:18 A.M. PST 🙂
Should I continue on? Somewhere in the back of my mind I hear Skip saying to me, “That’s enough, Joan, you can go to sleep!” 🙂
Thank you, Skip, for stopping me, or I would have been up all night choosing the order of my favorite Kyle Bean pieces! But honestly, I really loved them all! 🙂
I’m glad you enjoyed them, Joan. Hopefully you finally went to sleep!
Wow! You can hear skip that far away in your mind? 😉 LOL
Oh my gosh!!!
Your son is an excellent musician!
Good grief! Go to bed!
Amazing talent and the details are incredible. If I have to pick one, I think the pencil shaving portraits have to be at the top of the list. The chicken is incredible too, well they are all incredible.
The pencil shavings made me think about how easy it would be to just blow them away. LOL I’m sure he eventually glued them down, but not in the beginning!
