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.

220cm Scissors
Bought this super long scissors in 220cm size in "Fitcut" Japan branded!
I was very excited to try it out on my silhouette cutting.Thought such long size scissors was use to cut larger size paper, so I try it using an A3 size paper.The process seems taking much more time than normal size.This is the largest silhouette I ever done before.

Silhouette Cutting at Raffles Town Club
Just did silhouette cutting fringe art activities for a dinner and dance at Raffles Town Club Singapore.Great to meet Ivan and Lee Lee (http://www.sg-airbrushtattoo.blogspot.com/) in the event. The were doing quality and nice mini T-shirt name making by airbrush in the event.mini T-shirt name making by airbrush which mean using airbrush to spray your name on the mini T-shirt and let you take home as souvenir. To me this is a very new item in the event pre-activities market, moreover Ivan and Lee Lee using luminous color pre-done on the mini T-shirt make the artwork in a creative and unique way.William was doing his Pebble Calligraphy in the event.Had a great "Bak Kut Teh" which recommended and treated by Ivan & Lee Lee after work! Yahoo! Very Delicious!The Bak Kut Teh stall was at the Kopitiam just opposite Fu Lu Shou Building.
