Artists these days are finding new and creative ways to express themselves and how they see the world. An example would be Australian paper artist Lisa Rodden. She manipulates paper by folding and slicing it to reveal the bright, acrylic paintings underneath. Some of her creations are an abstraction of shapes and lines, while others create images of flowers or fish. She finds inspiration for her craft in the interrelatedness between humans and their connection to the land. As a result Rodden has created a unique collection of hand cut paper works that are sure to stimulate the mind and the eye. Visit her website here to check out the rest of her work. Also, if you happen to find yourself in Australia, you can see some of her collection in person at this website.
