Electric Laser Cutter

D.C. artist Gomillion brought a laser cutter machine to my studio and demonstrated how it can be used to cut precisely through multiple sheets of paper with a very light touch. It really saves your hands, he said, epecially when you have a lot to cut. I was excited to experiment with it cutting on a paste paper sheet I painted and layering it on top of another. You can make some really dimensional work fairly easily.
