Audrey Kawasaki's Paper Cut-outs

A year ago, I remember browsing through artist May Ann Licudine's blog and stumbling upon this exchange between her and another favorite artist of mine, Audrey Kawasaki. Imagine my fangirl squeals! Mall's drawing of Audrey was super cute, but Audrey's cut-out piece was pretty. I love how detailed and delicated it is.

Audrey's gift to Mall. So pretty!

Ever since their exchange, Audrey has been making more of these doodle darlings. Here are some of them.

Theme Thursday: Dreamcatchers

Dreamcatchers are really popular nowadays among the youth. It can be seen as necklaces, earrings, shirt prints and even paintings. I don't know the reason behind the youth's sudden interest in this Native American charm. Perhaps it's because they symbolize hope and good vibes, two things that––depending on one's perspective––the world lacks.

I've loved dreamcatchers ever since I first saw one as a little girl. My mom told me about how it's supposed to filter the bad dreams and let the good ones fall down the feathers and into your head. I asked her to buy me one and she did. I lost it a long time ago, but my fascination for dreamcatchers remained. In fact, I turned an old dreamcatcher earring of mine into a pendant for Blair!

My week 4 entry for Dolly Diptych Weekly on Flickr. Caught Blair chilling on my bed, so I snapped several photos in return. What a laid-back model. :P
