Goodbye New York. It's sad to leave but oh what a great time I've had!

Another great find of mine through
Renegade (and being in the USA generally) has been the paper cuts and illustrations of American artist
Nikki McClure. She makes exquisitely detailed paper cuts using black paper about domestic scenes or images of nature. Also, people tell me her annual calendar is one to watch out for. I was in a tiny shop in Brooklyn a few days ago and was lucky enough to see some of her cards. Absolutely gorgeous. Here's hoping I can snap up one of her calendars later in the year.
