Laser Cutting


The moose image came from a Christmas decoration I bought for a friend . I used the image overlayed onto a background of my printed fabric for this years Christmas card.


My first attempt at laser cutting , moose photgraphed in the design centre window . He is actually only 8 cms high !





Using images created in Illustrator we created files that can then be used on the laser cutter. Being near to Christmas ans as a fun first excercise we created Christmas tree decorations cut out of wood or in my case perspex .I am fascinated by the idea of cutting into fabric and paper as wellas creating screens (ie room dividers ) The negative space left behind is just as interesting as the cut out !
