Day One

Paper Cutting, also known as Scherenschnitte, has been a new passion of mine. Somehow drawn to the simplicity and elegance brought by a mere shadow of an image.   Although there are endless possibilities with the art form, I am still in the traditional phase of cutting out on black paper.  I have toyed with different background papers which I really enjoy.
I was diagnosed with Rheumatiod Arthritis about 4 years ago.  I am currently I'm remission from the autoimmune disease thanks to modern medicine.  My passion for paper cutting is driven by my desire to use my hands to create as much as I can while I still have the ability to do so. 
I am excited to share my work.  None is my original design, I haven't gotten there yet.
