Cut Paper Tiles
I am spending six Saturdays taking a paper cutting class with artist
Bhavna Mehta. Last week we worked on cutting layers of colored paper to make tiles. We are also learning about negative and positive space as well as other paper cutting traditions like silhouettes. I am really enjoying stretching my experience and learning from a true paper master.
Enjoy.

Template for my tile.
White layer is cut and grey layer is taped underneath.
White and grey are cut and black is taped under ready to be cut.
Finished tile with the cut black layer and a bottom white layer.
I saved the positive shapes when I was cutting the tile and glued them together to make this tile.
