A graphic design graduate from Falmouth University named Polly Lindsay started a blog called 'Veg of the Day.' The blog is only in its beginning stages, but so far it features unique cut-out versions of [popular and colorful vegetables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-vegetable-are-you).

The artist came up with the concept through her exploration of combining graphic design with handcrafted design, illustration and typography. She claims to have most recently become fascinated with [paper craft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti) and you can tell, considering she dedicated a blog to it.

Lindsay uses [layers of paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-curves), which she spaces out and tiers, to re-imagine produce in paper form. They are intricate and vibrant but at the same time, they are minimalist images of simple foods like avocados, onions and red peppers.
