Papercuts by Andrew Flint

These pieces are made of construction paper that I cut with an X-acto knife. Some consist of one piece of paper pressed flat against a background, and other are built of several pieces of paper mounted at various depths inside shadowbox frames. I can reproduce these and many other images in various configurations of depth, color, size, and complexity.
