A friend shared a link to your site with me, and I just wanted to tell you how beautiful your work is! Your cutting is so fine and precise!<BR/><BR/>Have you ever used silhouette paper? It's great, because it has a white back to draw the pattern on! It holds together well even though it's very lightweight. I get mine at Dick Blick, and buy it by the pack for a pretty good price.<BR/><BR/>Good to meet you!<BR/>Kim :-)Kim at Thistle Dewhttp://thistledewmercantileblog.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31007666.post-88281116862008530442008-03-13T01:34:00.000+02:002008-03-13T01:34:00.000+02:00Unbelievable!

Maybe you could get them laser cut out of a thin smoky perspex or something...

A few responses to suggestions and queries below:<BR/><BR/>tcarole and Sarah: The freezer paper sounds like an interesting idea. I didn't know you could use it as iron-on stencils. And Sarah, I'd love to see your cuts of watercolour paper. I really should experiment with different papers and see what works best.<BR/><BR/>Leanne Graeff: Thanks for your comments and insight into your process. I love the prints you make and am always impressed by how much you do in such a small space!<BR/><BR/>Carly: Cutting curves just takes practice, but I find turning the paper instead of trying to do it all with the knife helps too.Heather Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02868506163172216741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31007666.post-26130570795161356322008-02-14T07:18:00.000+02:002008-02-14T07:18:00.000+02:00I am amazed at the beauty of your work!<BR/><BR/>I have tried papercutting before and I have a lot of trouble cutting accuarately, especially curves. Can you give me some advice? Do you make several shallow cuts before the line is complete, or is there a recommended cutter I should try?<BR/><BR/>Thanks!

Having such parameters allows a focus and consistency. <BR/><BR/>I only paint my silkscreen positives - directly on the acetate. I find that by limiting myself to that medium I am better able to express my own "hand".<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the inside view! - looks lovely!Leanne Graeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14579755563129562917noreply@blogger.com
