The overall objective of the workshop is to show paper cutting’s flexibility and sometimes unexpected range for personal expression. Beginning with a simple feather, students will be guided through the basic techniques Wendy uses making hand-cut paper sculptures. Through this first project students will learn cutting, shaping, texturing the paper while sharpening powers of observation. A second sculpture of the students’ original design will explore further paper engineering and layering techniques. Final pieces will be mounted and ready to frame.
