Hi, I am Welles Tan, welcome to my blog. I had been a caricaturist for events and parties since 1990. Silhouette Cutting also called Portrait Silhouette Cutting,Profile Cutting or Shadow Cutting. It is an art that using scissors to cut out a shape of a person’s side profile using dark color paper. You can frame it like a photo, put on the desk as a decoration for memories. Within an hour, it should be about 40 - 50 cutting of A6 size to be produced, this is a professional artist's speed.

Colorful Silhouette Cutting
I just tried out silhouette cutting in colorful paper, seems it looks good. To produce a nice looking color contrast, need to use a high quality paper else the quality will be bad; of course the higher quality of the paper the higher cost is necessary, haahaa!

Silhouette Cutting At Zoological Singapore and Singapore Flyer
Did silhouette cutting for McConnell’s Family Day at Zoological Singapore; although there was a worm day, but I was happily to meet the friendly and nice guests. Other thatn that, met some old friends in this event as well liken popcorn provider May, airbrush tattoo and face painting Sheila and her team.Look! This is the white tiger which in the news recently!Basically, due to school holiday, many companies will pick almost the same day to do their family day, hence certain Saturday or Sunday became hot day for entertainer’s booking, and meanwhile we might be booked 2 or more shows within such hot days.
Usually, year end like November and December was peak period for lots commercial promotion activities, hence we could be having 2 or more bookings during week end. As an entertainer, you have to be compromised that your week end burned; because we belonging to the servicing group in the society as well, haahaa!
I was luckily that having 2nd booking at Singapore Flyer!
