A Recipe For...

'A recipe to mend a broken heart' piece for the fundraising 'Recipe For...' Illustration magazine. Paper-cut out, hand-cut with scalpel. Improving my scalpel skills, but the blade does go blunt a lot when doing delicate text like this, nightmare! Some of the words are taken from a song called "Unhappy Anniversary" by Loudon Wainwright III, one of my favourites. I changed them around and added to them to make this verse which fit the working title. As I've been working a lot with papercut and paper sculpture I built on this work in my Negotiated Practice project to incorporate the intricacy of the papercut drawing with my 3-D sculptural/model-making work. More of that to come.

Silent Auction

Festive AUCB Illustration silent auction in December, sold this papercut based on some Beatles lyrics! Hand-cut with a scalpel and mounted. Really enjoying my papercutting at the moment, although it is very tricky and time consuming, especially where text is involved. Thank you Krister Selin for the photograph of my work in the auction!

Narrative

Some prep for the Narrative project - based on the themes of fragility and innocence. Paper cut outs were interesting, need to work on my scalpel skills though!
