Papercutting

     I finally got round to doing a multi layered papercut with this one. So as well as having the white paper and black background I added silver and gold to the various details. For my next one I will try to add a lot more colours now I know I can make it work.

     Not done a collage in a while so here's one with a favourite subject of mine.

     Another papercutting using large areas of black. I thought it would help create a strong silhouette, especially with the feathers. I'm hoping soon to do a painting with a belly dancer but for now paper seems to be a good medium for this theme.

     More belly dancer fun. I thought I should do a closer crop for this one so I could add more details to the costume. Of course more details mean more cutting and this makes the paper very weak. I have seen some crazy papercutting though with a lot more detail in them than mine, so it's just a case of being careful when working on it and careful storing it.
     I have been thinking about adding colour to my papercutting pictures but that will take a lot of planning. I am in love with processes though so it should be interesting to figure it all out. I may also make some belly dancer pictures in other mediums to if I can ever find the time.
