So very clever. ❤

The work of Jasmine Kay Uy for her University of Texas at Austin Department of Art and Art History Digital Foundations class with Bethany Johnson titled "Art is Pointless...". The prompt was to create a work that investigated site-specificity, public setting, and text-based art using Illustrator and the vinyl cutter. According to Uy, the format was inspired by Publicis London's Corners campaign for Depaul UK. Any reproduction of this work is done so without my permission. This project is meant to be a short-term investigative project that is to stay within the confines of the University of Texas at Austin.

I think this one's my favourite so far. They work so much better when framed with lots of depth so you get the lovely shadows too. Loads more to follow in the coming weeks so keep an eye out!

This is one of the framed paper cuts soon available to buy in my Etsy shop.

Thanks for all your orders today! Lots of packaging to do and lots of little parcels leaving the studio soon.

I am in the process of updating my Etsy & Folksy shops and will soon be adding more prints and some NEW little framed PAPERCUTS! All will be at very affordable prices. So if you cannot stretch to an original painting, or you're looking for an inexpensive gift this is the place to go!

Currently I also have a few little Photoblock Prints left in stock, like the one featured below, and they are now up for sale at a very silly price! Check them out here;

Today's papercut. Love Birds, copper on black background.

I enjoyed a great day learning new mixed media techniques on Saturday. I thought I'd share my makes with you today. Thank you to Lisa at LOOBICRAFTS and The Craft Studio for organising, and to Mark Gould for his patience with me, and for showing us so many techniques! They were finished off & personalised back in my studio. I shall be bringing some of these techniques into my paintings in the future. ... See more

A painting from 2014 for my lovely friend Jennifer's 30th birthday. Always one of my favourites.

Many of my creative friends will find this article a good read. I could certainly relate to it and I may need to read it to refresh my memory from time to time! I also love the illustration featured in it, but then I love lots of Chrissy Lau's work!

Why does making have to be about the end result? Cath Dean suggests we take time to go the long way round. We live in an age of ‘look what I made’ Instagram posts. The thrill of watching the ‘likes’ and comments roll in make it easy to fall into the trap of approaching creativity... Continue reading... ... See more
