10.31.11


Lately I've been attracted and inspired by wycinaki, which is Polish cut paper designs. Earlier this year I had started researching Polish folk art designs for some potential jewelry inspiration and came across wycinaki. I immediately was drawn to the layering of the cut paper, the symmetry, and the bright vibrant colors. After amassing examples of wycinaki onto my laptop, I've finally came up with some projects that I want to do using the designs. Today I started cutting out felt versions of the flowers which are commonly used in different wycinaki designs. Included in this image are the paper patterns I made as well.
I would love to wallpaper a room in wycinaki...someday I will.
