Cut #19 - Downtown Cumulous

This is my first three colour cut. It begins with a photograph of the downtown skyline with cumulous clouds that I took one day. This was approx. a 10 hour process from photo to final cut.​  Outlining the clouds in photoshop took a while so I like to say that my head was in the clouds.

The clouds were cut to red card stock.  The city skyline was cut to black and just a plain white card stock for background. 

Cut #17 Khari Wendell McClelland.

This cut started with a wonderful photograph of Khari Wendell McClelland taken by Laura Alexandra Murray.  The photograph has strong graphic elements and of course Khari is a naturally photogenic subject!  Cut to dark grey and mounted on cadmium yellow card stock. 
 Photographed after mat peel against a window and also post cut on the mat prior to peeling.
