Many, many years ago my friend Lisa brought me paper cuts from her trip to China. It's funny how things work in life. I loved them from the moment I received them but I had no idea back then that I would one day be so fascinated by this art form and that I'd be attempting to do it myself.
These particular paper cuts are done on the finest, most delicate rice paper imaginable and are so delicate that you can't really pick them up. I have never gotten around to framing them but instead would take them out from time to time to look at them. I couldn't possibly appreciate more the level of artistry that goes into making something this amazing.
This one, below, is one of my favorites...
the paper is cut so fine it looks like string.
Thank you for your patience with my camera. I am hoping to upgrade sometime soon so that I can do pieces like this justice.
