A blog on Hand-cut silhouette portrtait art by Me, made with scissors and paper only.
Things I love... my family, my pets.
My activities, and travel to places and spaces.
Weddings, birthdays and events. Who knows; maybe even more.
Silhouette portraits are symbolic of family, celebration and an era of elegance, and simpler times
At first you may find this not much different than most blogs. But if you read on, you will join me on my journey which includes my family, places I visit, and people I meet. I am very grateful to share my art and consider it an honor to give something to people who have never seen how a silhouette is created or even had their silhouette done before. I love hearing the stories of those who may have posed for a silhouette years ago, at their elementary school, fair, or an amusement park. Some have shared, they still have their silhouette framed and hanging on their wall at home or their mom's wall. Others say it's in a scrapbook or put away in a box. What amazes me, is these stories always come from a good place and people cherish them and hold on to them for many years.
Silhouette art is unique and fun.

Take a Pose
I have a collection of different silhouette cuttings and these are just two of several of these type. My plan was to put them in a setting that would be very appealing. But I put these two in a square black frame.
