In process piece. This piece is larger than I normally make, but making good progress. I tend to overthink pieces and work and rework the sketches, but I’m trying something new by switching between sketching and cutting. —————— #papercutting #closeuppapercut #guildofamericanpapercutters #contemporaryart #worksonpaper (at 1890 Bryant Street Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn_ggmlO4bh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
