Today’s Feature is a very talented artist and
paper cutter- Enjoy getting to know her!
1) What is your business name and give a
brief description of your business?
My
business is called My Papercut Heart;
I create pencil drawn hand cut paper cut illustrations.
2) Where do you sell your products?
I sell
mostly from my facebook page...I am a new company and I live in a relatively
remote area so the internet works well for me. I also have pieces in a local
gallery in Brecon.
3) What
do you enjoy the most about your work?
I love
the complete freedom my customers allow me when I’m creating my commission
pieces...As an artist this is a wonderful endorsement to be given free rein on
creativity
4) How
would you describe your style?
I would
describe my style as very free-flowing, whimsical....with a nod to fairytales
and a smidge of humour!
5) Where is your studio?
I live in
a little 1 up 1 down cottage so I work from the downstairs room...as a single
mum this is perfect as I’m in the thick of it with my daughter!
6) Tell us, how did you got started?
I have
always been creative, but discovered paper cutting after experimenting making
Christmas cards for my family and friends last year. People started asking me
to make things for them and it has taken off from there....A very happy
accident.

Biography
I was
born in Wiltshire, at the age of 19 I moved onto my narrow boat 'Ruby Tuesday'
and travelled the country. I taught myself to sign write and the art of
traditional canal boat art. In 2010 my daughter was born and I wanted to settle
somewhere...Last year I moved to Mid Wales in the stunning Cambrian Mountains,
and decided I needed a new craft to pay the bills and subsidise adventures.
Inspired by the scenery I started sketching and cutting animals and
landscapes...And that is where my latest venture was born.
