Nativity

Nativity, a photo by anklecemetery on Flickr.

I made this for St. Nicholas Day (December 6), but haven't been able to mount it yet. It's pictured here against brown Canson Mi-Tientes drawing paper.

The cutting was partly planned and partly freehand; I drew a basic overlay that became more detailed the longer I worked on it. This one took about a week to complete.

Cut from Strathmore drawing paper (18"x22") using #11 xacto blades.

(Thanks to my sister for photographing it with her iPhone. My camera wasn't working too well.)
