Paperwork II

For a change I was taking sharp blades to paper instead of wood, my standard medium. As a result, these new little pieces are a combination of papercut and ink drawings. The distance between the front drawing and the spaypainted background creates visual depth that allows for shadows … and whatever is lurking inside of them.
