Ourimproved Paper Cut Sailor Soldiers are back on our Etsy Shop!
Our paper cut Sailor Moon has got a new look!
She has been completely redesigned, like Sailor Jupiter.
New details on the hands, on the suit, hair and face, but same size as before!
Even if they’re hard to see (due to the size of the whole illustration), there are so much new details on her. A comparison of a close up of our paper Sailor Moon to show you the golden paper we chose for tiara, earrings and golden details on the chibi.
Evenfingers are now much more detailed, we cut sleeves parts one by one and the bow is smaller :)

Practice makes perfect!
Ourlatest Paper cut Sailor Jupiter compared to herfirst version, created some months ago. Hope to continue improving!Post link
We are tired of reading stupid comments like “Jasmine is possessed by a demon”, “she has no soul!”, “DEMON!” or rubbish like that just because we drew her with black eyes.
The style we used is not new and many successful artists who works at Disney used it long before we did.
You could like it or not, but critiques should always be constructive and if you don’t know something, you shouldn’t talk. This is so demoralizing.

Kolaj Magazine, a full color, print magazine, exists to show how the world of collage is rich, layered, and thick with complexity. By remixing history and culture, collage artists forge new thinking. To understand collage is to reshape one’s thinking of art history and redefine the canon of visual culture that informs the present.
COLLAGE COMMUNITIES
Nashville Collage Collective
The Nashville Collage Collective was at first a collaborative foursome, Lisa Haddad, Eva Sochorova, robert bruce scott, and Randy L Purcell, which eventually became The Four Corners, allowing the Collective to open itself to the larger community. Meeting in studios and public places since 2010, members share whatever they bring to the table resulting in a communal stash of materials, cross-pollinating partnerships and inspiration for beginners and pros alike. The collective’s goal is to maintain the good thing that has evolved over the past decade: a safe space for expression with respect for any creative process involving the juxtaposition of stuff. MORE

COLLAGE ON VIEW
Sensitive
Carolyn Boll at Galerie ERGA in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, 30 March-3 April 2022. Using her collage book, A Day in the Life of a Highly Sensitive Person, as a departure point, Carolyn Boll’s “Sensitive” reflects the playful potential of the partnering between poetry, image, and dance. Just in time for National Poetry Month with this year’s theme of intimacy, Boll named the show “Sensitive” because of her collage book, created over many years of coming out, and also because of the layers of meaning the word has for her. It is a word that is too often used to suggest one should be less sensitive than they are, when sensitivity is actually such a valuable gift. Boll also loves how the word evokes secrets as in “sensitive information“. MORE
