ABOUT

My work blurs the line between computer and paper-cut art - I am frequently asked whether my work is crafted from paper but it is created digitally. I work in Adobe Photoshop, using highlights and shadows to create layered compositions.

When I first developed my process a few years ago, I made several self-initiated pieces before I started receiving commissions requesting this style. Now I work almost entirely this way!

I wanted to update my portfolio to reflect this direction but that would have meant losing a few old editorial favourites along the way. Instead of removing the older pieces, I decided to revisit and update them. I'm happy with how they turned out, hope you like them too.
