Shock! Horror! Headlines – Spray painting experiments

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

I have to say it was daunting to lay down a delicate piece of papercut and spray paint over it!

I’m quite pleased with the results. There would be a long way to go – proportions/colours/type of paint/etc but it’s a start.

    Hello there. I’m new to this blog and LOVE your work. It’s so beautiful :) I work at an art supply store and the other day a customer told me that they sometimes do tshirt stencils using spray paint. I haven’t tried this myself but since spray paint seems to stick permanently to anything you never know! Anyways I mention this because I think these would make gorgeous tshirts!

    hello, just wanted to say i love these sprayed ones… i haver used just a plain letter stencil before and sprayed through that and the end results whilst always being a bit unpredictable, always look at least intersting… your papercuts have just blown my mind by the way… and inspired me to have a quick go… i think ill stick to sewing… and leave it to people like you…

    Hi Julene,

    I just found your blog and love your work! I wondered after seeing these spray paint experiments if you’d considered using sun print/cyanotype paper in a similar way? It works like a photogram and comes out almost exactly the same yummy blue as these…
    I had a go a while ago, you can see the results here

    Anyway, good to find you!

    Anna :)

    Hi Anna, I’d never heard of that technique. Your experiments look great – esp the ‘hello’ one! I also like you mini bunting cards! lovely.
