I’m happy to share this recently commissioned portrait of Miss. Esther Earl!

It was a pleasure working with her parents on this special gift for John Green, and I’m honored to help keep her star burning! :)

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Esther’s story, as well as being an exceptional young lady in her own right, she was also a huge inspiration for John Green’s The Fault in out Stars.

If you are interested, please check out the “This Star Wont Go Out Foundation”, a non-profit foundation headed my Esther’s parents, Lori and Wayne. They continue to serve families with children diagnosed with life-threatening cancer in Esther’s honor. There you can read more about her life and legacy!

We love Esther!

Wishing everyone the best this spring!

John Green:  Who’s your favourite Beatle and what’s your favourite colour?

John Green:  Mine’s John.  And Green.

Well, I promised something bigger and better, and here it is!

‘When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.’ - Cersei Lannister

I just love this quotation so much, to me it completely sums up the whole series and the nature of medieval politics. Love it. This piece took an absolute age to do, but I think it was worth it. The sigils featured are houses Stark, Lannister, Baratheon, Arryn, Greyjoy, Martell, Tyrell, Targaryen and Frey. 

The original is available to purchase here, I will never make this one again! https://www.etsy.com/listing/117182870/you-win-or-you-die-paper-cut

I hope you like it, please let me know what you think and any suggestions you may have. :)

I promise I’ll do a bigger, better piece of artwork really soon, but in the meantime I made cards! They’re inspired by the quotation ‘I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once.’ from the novel The Fault in our Stars by John Green. I hope you like them!

They are available to order in my etsy shop:

Wow, just, wow! I can’t believe how much people loved my paper cut, thank you so much to everyone who liked it, reblogged it, or started following me!

I hope you all like it, just a quick little one. As always, suggestions welcome! :)

Some of you may remember when I made my own paper cut book cover for ‘Looking for Alaska’, and I decided today that I should make my own one for 'The Fault in Our Stars’ as well. :)

As you can see from the second photo it is cut by hand with a craft knife from a single sheet of card. For the design I opted for Hazel and Gus holding hands, with Gus’s cigarette clasped between his fingers too. I hope you like it. :)

Obviously this piece isn’t for sale, however there is lots of my other work for sale in my shop here.
