I don’t know who Whistles are but this is a very nice invitation that they sent out and gives me all kinds of ideas. Cut out people were one of my favourite things when I was a kid, and now I wonder why I don’t do more of them. I haven’t done much paper cutting…

Revealing my Disband pieces

In addition to designing the logo and poster, I exhibited three pieces and now that the show has officially opened I can grant you a looksee too. There are rooms in this house that…
The final peek at my Disband work

Cute! ⇒ I would love to…
Paper cuts hurt!
In the last month I decided to try my hand at a little bit of paper cutting, or scherenschnitte, after seeing a few artists’ work using only a piece of paper and a sharp implement. I started using my old exacto and ended up with three choice calluses on my thumb, pointer and middle finger.…
Another red dress!

Paper cutting dress
This is from 2004, but it was too amazing not to post. I was googling “paper cutting” and came across this dress in the image search! It was part of the Chinese Paper-cutting Art Exposition in Wenzhou City, in east China’s Zhejiang Province.
