This is Mabel, a bright and happy tot with a parasitic twin named Myrtle. The two are inseparable, and they wouldn’t have it any other way.

May festival update 2019
Hi Darklings,
Quick update as to what’s happening in the world of all things papercut: Papercut Pictures and Papercut Puppets.
Firstly, my latest animated short Wunderkammer will screen May 11th at the Anifilm 2019 international animation festival in Třeboň, Czech Republic in the non-competitive programming block “Midnight Animation: Body”. This feels like a stylistic homecoming for this project, since it was inspired (in part) by Czech paper cutout animation, most notably the work of Jiří Trnka Studio in Prague (who created the feature-length cutout animation film Fantastic Planet).
In June, Wunderkammer screens on Thursday, June 6th at the granddaddy of North American underground film festivals, the Chicago Underground Film Festival.
Lastly, I continue to add to the paper puppets in my Etsy shop. Check in at regular intervals for the latest additions.
Blowing off the dust from my Etsy shop.
Over the Christmas/New Year’s break, I turned my attention towards the business side of my art practice. In the spirit of renewal for the New Year, I decided to resurrect my cobwebbed and long neglected Etsy shop and upload some new listings. Ultimately, I plan to add these to this web site/blog — with an option to purchase via PayPal button — once I figure how to actually do that.

Below are the listings on offer:
