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.

Mad Hatter Bridal Shower in San Diego
It's a short week. Well it feels like one. Saturday is only a few days away. And with the 4th of July on Monday it feels like it was as Sunday and now Saturday is already coming up fast. I have a bridal shower to cut silhouettes at in San Diego. And the theme is Disneyesque Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland. I have a feeling it's going to be tall hats that I will be cutting. Or sorts of hats. Maybe other sorts of things. like that. Umm now my imagination is starting to warm up. I better start to get ready. Well, here's a hat of sorts. I am getting pumped up. I may have to change my white lace table cloth to red. Umm... I 'm starting to getting to like this. Antique stores, downtown Fullerton, here I come.
