Annie Vought does some really inter­est­ing cut outs with paper. Using jour­nal entries, she manip­u­lates orig­i­nal text and draw­ings to cre­ate large-scale multi-layered pieces. I am espe­cially fond of the way Annie uses accent­ing lines to cut a hor­i­zon­tal plane. Design-wise, it cre­ates pock­ets of shapes and abstracts the let­ters even fur­ther. The light­ing of ...

I am in the mood for cut outs today! Rob Ryan is a London-based artist whose work is com­prised of images and words cut out of paper. His work has appeared in books, mag­a­zines, and gallery shows.

I love ...

San­dra Juto is an illus­tra­tor liv­ing in Swe­den. Mod­ern with a vin­tage feel, her work can be both con­cep­tual and com­mer­cial. She has a vari­ety of clients and per­sonal projects that seem to allow her to flex either muscle. I think that Sandra’s work is very sweet and sen­si­tive, made pos­si­ble through her char­ac­ter devel­op­ment. ...

Jayme McGowan is an artist liv­ing in Cal­i­for­nia. She makes won­der­ful paper cutouts and 3D shadow boxes, using paper as a a way to ren­der depth. Jayme’s shadow boxes are some­thing that you don’t see every­day, espe­cially in the world of illus­tra­tion. Her char­ac­ters are sweet and the work shows that there is a lot of ...
