I started a paper cutting class this week. I was excited when I signed up and I'm even more excited now. This was the first project for the class which I think is brilliant. This is such an approachable project but it is also well suited to pretty much any skill level.

I am always a little uncertain when confronted with having to draw and this was no different. Once I'd traced my hand I started by filling in the fingers with abstract shapes and sort of went from there. Turning something into a silhouette covers almost all evidence of terrible drawing skills. I was really happy with the final product.
