I’m totally in love with the art of scherenschnitte. Oh Happy Day posted link to Cindy Ferguson’s beautiful papercuttings. I want to draw them and I want to learn how to make them. As soon as I have time.

P.S. The Post/Song title today might seem far-fetched, but there actually is a connection. The song is from “Ragtime”, and is sung by a Jewish immigrant who is a silhouette artist.

And if you don’t, then YOU come up with a better musical song title for an entry on scherenschnitte.
