“To Dream and To Wonder.” This piece came to me easy and from a purely emotional place. I channeled the joy and beauty of what it means to build community - as Irene has done and will continue to do. And pondered the ephemeral nature of spaces. And too many other questions to list here. Come celebrate the last 10 years with the FINAL @wonderlandsf show and party! 1266 Valencia, Sat, June 1 from 6 pm to late late. ————————— #paperart #cutpaper #papercutting #papercutart #papercuts #sanfrancisco #sanfranciscoartist #alabamastreetartists #missionartists #guildofamericanpapercutters #papercutmix #biancalevan #artexplosionstudios https://www.instagram.com/p/ByIKyTMnbzP/?igshid=1t5f2d9c359kg

“Where the Sea Meets a Path” - This piece is a response or rather continuing a conversation with a previous piece done in October. Both will be at an upcoming show.

In truth, it has been challenging to be here — in a new place and focused on art in a way I haven’t done before. It’s uncomfortable for sure. So. I drowned myself in music and podcasts. But in the last 2 days, I’ve craved and embraced the quiet — spending time in silence and stillness. ————————— Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When we listen to it, we find it fascinating. — John Cage ————————— I’ve been doing some composition studies, which is new. It’s fun to block out shapes and think about what might go into those spaces later. ————————— Photos: (1) Papercut date. (2) My first finished papercut, started at home but it still counts, right? (3) Studio in the afternoon light. (4) Me (hello!) ☺️ (5) Outside the studio waiting for the fixative to fix on the charcoal. (6) Charcoal composition studies #1. (7) Charcoal composition studies #2. (8) Making a mark; me working on a sketch. ————————— #chalkhillartistresidency #warneckeranch #artresidency #charcoaldrawing #healdsburgart #johncage #silence #naturesongs #papercut #papercutting #guildofamericanpapercutters #biancalevan #closeuppapercut (at Chalk Hill Artist Residency) https://www.instagram.com/p/CU31crVlG4X/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is a small study of gingko leaves (5”x 7”) for a larger piece; something a little different than what I’ve normally done. ——— —————— #art #artistsoninstagram #gingko #gingkoleaves #papercut #papercutting #paperart #sanfranciscoartist #biancalevan
