bits and pieces

Collection of recent drawings for a resurrected papercutting project. A crafty collaboration with friend and papercutter(ess) extraordinaire, Su.

Tracing paper templates are transferred on to heavy drawing paper. The hand cut and etched pieces from these particular drawings will be arranged in a shadow box to emulate Québec City’s Place Royale.

A baby shower present already two years overdue. Following some embarrassed correspondence and profuse apologizing, we were thrilled to find out that the recipients still want the finished shadow boxes to decorate their home.

Scheming, sketching and scoring up a storm to move this project forward in a big way. We’re determined to hang our handmade gift on the walls of our friends’ home before their tot goes to college. It’s Plan A or bust.

Yep, finishing stalled projects is another facet of my intention to release clutter. File this one under “obliteration of mental and emotional clutter”.
