Silhouette Artist

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.

Chinese Paper Cutting

Engaged by an event company doing Chinese Paper Cutting in a shopping Centre.

May Toh was doing Chinese Dough Figurine demo in the event; that was very happy that met friends that I know in the event.

“Tin tin candy” making; is one of the common Chinese tidbits other than ‘Dragon Bead Candy’ etc.

Did some ‘silhouette cutting + Chinese Paper Cutting’ for the guests.
