Eiko Ojala is a crazy freak of nature – and in my books, that’s a very, very good thing. Allow me to elaborate. This young man is a multitalented individual. Ojala is an illustrator, graphic designer and art director who lives and works in Tallinn, Estonia. In case you’re thinking these images are layers of cut paper collaged together – you better think again. These are all in fact digitally drawn by the Estonian artist.

I know what you’re thinking – but they all feel so “real”. I know, I know, I KNOW! This is precisely why I call him a freak. All of his images are quite dynamic with so much depth – I almost feel like I can dive into each one and touch all the various layers of paper. Just look at those perfect shadows! The man’s got skills.

You can see many more fantastic examples of his work on his website.
