Cigarette Paper Clouds

Maryline Pomian Creates Artistic Beauty with Rolling Paper

— June 26, 2010 — Lifestyle
Artist Maryline Pomian can take the simple, omnipresent medium of cigarette paper and transform it into something absolutely magical. She takes the delicate filters of cigarettes and forms them into soothing shapes that are reminiscent of soft clouds, frothy foam or open flower petals.

Maryline Pomian's artwork will most like put her viewers in a calm and serene mood, which is ironic considering that most smokers feel that way after they have a cigarette (or so I’m told). So, if you’re ever feeling stressed in the future, this is a gallery you should return to.
