Bold Tulip

A tulip is one of those flowers that one immediately associates with Spring and one that I really look forward to seeing. It always grabs attention in any garden with its bold shape and colour. 
 
The tulip regularly appears on artworks and artefacts from different places and cultures and, combined with my love of Art nouveau, this is my homage to that flower. I particularly love the combination of orange and green consequently this colour scheme has also appeared on some of my previous paper cuts.
 
‘Bold Tulip’ is a carefully made layered paper cut, in bas-relief, using pieces of cut coloured paper. This design can only be achieved by layering one piece of cut paper on top of another, three or more layers thick. As some of the papers are slightly textured, they highlight the individual details and the multiple layers of paper create a noticeable shadow effect.
