Amazing Paper Artist

Recently I've been dabbling in the art of paper cutting and card making as you know, but I was amazed to find this Artist, Peter Callesen, who makes me look like a kindergartener. I would love to know how he comes up with these feats of paper genius because they just blow my mind. He has a US exhibition February 3rd of next year and I am seriously tempted.

For an Old Friend



This is a card I just made for an elderly friend of the family. I took care of her a couple winters ago and she and I had a great time. She and her late husband were quite influential in the starting of Milwaukee's art scene back in the day. Our art styles were very different (she worked with glass) but we had lot to talk about. Now I've found out she's in the hospital and not doing very well, so I'll be bringing her this card.

The Whole Picture

Well, here is the final product that I hinted at a couple posts ago. This painting was a gift for my boyfriend's brand new nephew, and a surprise for his parents. I hope this brings little Parker many years of enjoyment.
