The Paper-Cut Poet

Today I made a series of amazingly simple poem and papercut collaborations.... I loved it!
So, as of today, I intend to further experiment with this interesting combination of outlets for my overbubbling of artistic interests.
I have opened up a separate blog page to store the images and words in the mean time and will see how it develops.

Blush burnished sunlight.

Today I started my new project called The Papercut Poet. It has been on the backburner for a few months as I'm creeping through the last few sections of my current Creative Writing course but finally I thought 'Why not? What am I waiting for?' And so I now have a fresh and fruity sister page for this one: http://thepapercutpoet.blogspot.co.uk 

On it, I'm able to post my more cutting (pun intended) paper related postings and will be updating this page with some of its content as and when it seems relevant. I've kicked things off with a new pet distraction - Book Spine Poetry! I guess it comes from hours gazing and ruminating over what to write, the best words for what I want to say, the best form to house or contain those words etc. etc. I find my eyes wandering to the bookshelves that surround my working space and the incredible titles that some of them have. I've often smiled at the juxtaposition of different titles and how they seemed to have connections but never knew this was an existing form of poetry. Who'd have thought it?

So here is a jpg of my first posting:

the whole woman
