Natural Hair Art

Paper cut silhouettes



I recently had a customer ask me if I sold silhouettes of children. I told her that it was in the works but I could design and cut a custom silhouette for her. She loved this idea and asked me to sketch and cut two natural hair paper cut silhouettes of two girls. She had pictures so I used them as my starting point and sketched silhouettes for her. I loved the way they came out! So I am going to create a listing for children silhouettes. 

Be on the look out!

I started off with two girls with loose big hair and the customer thought they looked similar  - which I agreed so I sketched a girl with afro puffs.

These are gorgeous! Don't you think?

Walk to End Alzeimers- An artist pledge





For three or more years my family has walked to help end Alzheimers. My grandmother passed in 2006 because of this disease. It was hard on our family caring for her and dealing with her passing. Since I have started my own small business I wanted to donate a portion of my sales to the organization this year. Please help me in doing this. For every art, papercut silhouette you buy I will donate a portion of total sales till end of October.






If your prefer you can visit my personal fundraising page to make a secure credit card donation online or download a form to mail in with a check. All donations benefit the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association -- and every dollar makes a difference in this fight.
