Google Reader (1000+) picture on VisualizeUs. Day 67,68,69- Free Hand Silhouettes. My computer is working and I am off for the weekend so I am posting a bunch of free hand silhouettes I did over the last few days...for the next few days.
Search By Theme: 29 Asian. Sarah Laws. Koi Fish - Papercut kirigami. Complicated Papercut Fish. This is my first truly complicated ONE-PIECE papercutting attempt.
I going for a fish shape with lots of ocean designs inside like bubbles, seaweed, shells, little fish, starfish, a sea urchin, etc. You can see that I am about halfway done. I'm pencil drawing on one side to map out my designs and also make sure I don't cut too close to the edge and compromise the strength of the piece. Then I'm drawing in the little patterns and pictures to make sure that the designs overlaps enough to keep the papercutting strong and correctly shaped overall. Even though I'm only about half done it's getting a bit overwhelming, so I have "cheated" and folded parts of the paper over itself to double-up the design and half the cutting time.
I'll take more pictures once I've completed the project. Sig_file.png (154×67) Ava-gardner-mit-katze1.jpg (500×625) 3D Paper Lizard {Craft Camp} I am excited to be offering 30 days of fun crafts to keep kids active and entertained this summer!
