ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This piece is currently at the Greenville Museum of Art. Hand-cut paper portrait of a young girl with freckles. Made from two layers: the top is a single piece cut to form the figure and then spray painted to add color and texture. The background is painted with acrylics in a simple geometric design. The top layer has spacers to lift it slightly away from the background. This helps the hand-cut paper to stand out by creating shadow lines. “Freckles” appeared in the Schwa Show: a national exhibition at Emerge Gallery in 2019.

Artist-in-residence at The Art Lab in Greenville, NC. I started creating stencils almost 30 years ago. Back then airbrush art was everywhere, but I couldn’t afford a fancy airbrush that let me control the width of the paint. Handcrafting stencils not only allowed me to create intricate artwork but the artwork looked different from everything else. I still use much of what I learned decades ago in my art today. One day, as I was posting a photo of a new hand-cut stencil on Instagram, it hit me that the stencil is a work of art itself. Now you’ll see many of my pieces made from layers of hand-cut paper so the “stencil” becomes the art.
